Hello!
To find the equation of a line parallel to y = 3x - 3 and passing through the point (4, 15), we need to know that if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equivalent.
This means that we create a new equation in slope-intercept form, which includes the original slope, which is equal to 3.
In slope-intercept form, we need a y-intercept. So, we would substitute the given ordered pair into the new equation with the same slope and solve.
Remember that slope-intercept form is: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
y = 3x + b (substitute the ordered pair (4, 15))
15 = 3(4) + b (simplify)
15 = 12 + b (subtract 12 from both sides)
3 = b
Therefore, the equation for the line parallel to the line y = 3x - 3, and passing through the point (4, 15) is y = 3x + 3.
Answer: X = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Y & X
Y = KX
K = Y/X = 16/4 = 4
Y= 8
K =4
X=?
X = Y/K
X = 8/4 = 2
$58+ $12.76= $70.76 total
Final answer: $70.76
