I believe the answer is....
For solving for a
a-7= 3(b+2) ———> distribute 3(b+2)
a-7= 3b+6 ———-> add 7 on both sides
a-7= 3b+6
a+7= 3b +7 ———-> the 7’s cancel out so you’re left with....
a = 3b + 13 (That’s your answer)
Hope that helped :3
Y= 40 x is the answer, hope this helped.
Answer is –4/5
Rearrange the equation to make y the subject
5y = –4x – 35
y = –4/5 x – 7
If the line is parallel to the other line, they both have the same gradients but different y-intercepts, so the gradient is just as is.
