A line is parallel to y = 2x – 8 and
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

y=2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

When an equation is parallel to another, it shares the same slope.

Our original line is y=2x-8, and it is in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)

This means that our slope is 2 because m represents the slope.

The slope of our parallel line will then also be 2.

<u>We can begin to plug that into point-slope form which is:</u>

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

This is where (x1, y1) is a point the line intersects, and m is the slope.

<u>Plugging in the slope, we'll have:</u>

y - y1 = 2(x - x1)

We also know it intersects the point (-4, -1)

We can plug this into our equation as well.

y - (-1) = m(x - (-4))

y+1=2(x+4)

<u>Now, we can simplify it into slope-intercept form:</u>

y+1=2(x+4)

Distribute

y+1=2x+8

Subtract 1 from both sides

y=2x+8-1

y=2x+7

Expand and Simplify 3(4x + 1 ) -2(3x-4)
pychu [463]

Answer:

<h3>\boxed{ \bold{ 6x + 11}}</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathsf{3(4x + 1) - 2(3x - 4)}

Distribute 3 through the parentheses

\mathsf{12x + 3 -2(3x - 4)}

Distribute 2 through the parentheses

⇒\mathsf{12x + 3 - 6x + 8}

Collect like terms

⇒\mathsf{6x + 11}

Hope I helped!

Best regards!!
