Answer:
y = x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically, if the lines are parallel, they have the same slope, right? So that part is already complete
And to get the rest of the equation, plug in the points -2 and 1 into the equation for the x values. Then set the equation to solve for b
After you do that you should get b = -3
The slope is 1 and the y-int is -3
Thank me later ;)
It has been a while since I had done these, but I believe you need to multiply all the measurements together
4 people in 60 minutes =
1 person in 15 minutes
3 people = 45 minutes
Okay so you out them into the form of y=mx+b. since equation 2 is already like that you need to do it to equation 1. which is y=-4x+4. graph both equations. if it has a solution (1 point where the two lines meet) it is consistantly and independent. if they are parallel lines and the solution is 0 the system is inconsistent and the lines are dependent. if it's the same line they are consistent and dependent. the line is not the same since the y intercept is different. the slope is the same though which tells us its parallel. so the system has a solution of 0 and is inconsistent and the lines are independent.
