Y = 2 + 3x
x + y = 26

Substitute:
x + (2 + 3x) = 26
4x + 2 = 26
4x = 24
x = 6

6 + y = 26
y = 20

Y intercept = 1 and parallel to y = 4x - 3

gregori [183]

When a line is parallel to another line, that means both lines have the same slope.

Since the standard form equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is our slope and b is our y-intercept, we know that the new equation will also have m=4.

They give us the y-intercept, b=1

So oue new equation is as follows...

y = 4x + 1

What is the factorization of the following trinomial? 15x2 - 44x - 36

BartSMP [9]

$15x^2-44x-36$

$=(15x^2+10x)+(-54x-36)$

factor out 5x from $15x^2+10x = 5x(3x+2)$

Factor out -18 from $-54x-36 = -18(3x+2)$

$=5x(3x+2)-18(3x+2)$

Factor out common term $(3x+2)$

$= (3x+2)(5x-18)$

hope this helps!
