Answer:
y -2 = -2/3(x +4)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several different forms of the equation for a line. Each is useful in its own way. Here, the line crosses the y-axis at a point between integer values, so using that intercept point could be problematical. That suggests the "point-slope" form of the equation for a line would be a better choice.
That form is ...
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
__
The two marked points are (-4, 2) and (5, -4). All we need is the slope.
The slope is given by the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) . . . . . . . . where the given points are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
m = (-4 -2)/(5 -(-4)) = -6/9 = -2/3
Using the first point, the equation for the line can now be written as ...
y -2 = -2/3(x -(-4))
y -2 = -2/3(x +4)
x represents the total sales and y represents the total amount of money that Gary earns.
Gary's monthly salary = 1500
His commission = 10% of his sales
= 
= 0.1x
So, total amount of money Gary earns is y = 0.1x + 1500.
3x = 9y
9y = 3x
y = 3x/9
y = 1/3x
The slope is 1/3
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation:
They are alternate interior angles.
E, C, B
When you solve the equation for y, the slope (number next to x) should be 3, because In order for it to be parallel to the original line they need to have the same slope
