Answer:
These two equations are equivalent because the order of operations states you work from the right to the left and do the multiplication first. Because we do the multiplication first, we get the same answer as the other equation because the parentheses are also done first, meaning these equations both get the same answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
I think its 0.9 but im not sure...
y-2 = 3(x+7) put it in y=mx+b form (slope intercept)
y-2 = 3(x+7) distribute 3
y-2 = 3x+21 add 2 to both sides
+2 +2
y = 3x + 23
so now the slope of that is 3 so the new equation has a slope of 3 because parallel slopes are equal.
my new line has a slope of 3 and point (4,2)
so we use point slope formula y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-2 =3(x-4) put it in y=mx+b form (slope intercept)
y-2 = 3(x-4) distribute 3
y-2 = 3x -12 add 2 to both sides
+2 +2
y = 3x + 10 which is you line slope intercept with parallel slope and contains (4,2)
I think its that jason mathed wrong
