4x - 12 = -7x - 111
11x = -99
x = -9
Down, the line is going down
Answer:
15 human years is 1 year for a medum sized dog
the second year for a dog is 9 years for a human
after that each human year would be 5 years for a dog estimated
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey!
So before trying to figure out the equation of the line, lets change -3y+4x = 9 into slope-intercept form:
-3y + 4x = 9
-3y = -4x + 9
y = (4/3)x - 3
Now that you have the equation in slope-intercept form we can find the equation of the line parallel to this. One thing that we are given from this equation is the slope of the line, the slope for two parallel lines are the same. So we know that the slope of the line is 4/3. We are also given another point on the line and we can plug this point in for y and x to find the y-intercept or b:
6 = (4/3)(-12) + b
6 = -16 + b
22 = b
Now that we know b, we have both the y-intercept and the slope so our equation would be:
y = (4/3)x + 22
Perpendicular lines, when intersecting, will always create a right angle at the intersection point. A right angle is an angle that is exactly 90 degrees.
