Answer:

y = -2x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines always have the same slope

To insert the point, use the slope intercept formula: y =mx+b

insert y (9)

insert x (-3)

insert the slope -2

9 = (-2)(-3) + b

9 = 6+b

subtract 6 from both sides

3 = b

Evaluate (16+a)+ 6b divided by 3 when a = 2 and b = 3

yawa3891 [41]

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow PEMDAS. Parentheses: 16+a, which is 18. There are no exponents so move on to multiplication. 6b. B is equal to 3, and 6x3 is 18. Next, division. 18/3 is 6. Now do addition so add together 18+6 which is 24.

Solving equations with variables on both sides <br><br><br> 7+9x=6x-2

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Here

Step-by-step explanation:

We move all terms to the left:

7+9x-(6x-2)=0

We get rid of parentheses

9x-6x+2+7=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x+9=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

3x=-9

x=-9/3

x=-3
