Answer:
x=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Right triangle so you can use pythagorean theorem
a squared + b squared = c squared
b=x
14^2 + b^2= 17^2
14+b=17
b=3
Answers to 1, 2, and 3 are in the picture
Paralell means has same lsope
y=mx+b
m=slope
given
y=3x-5
slope=3
y=3x+b
find b
(3,1)
x=3
y=1
sub and find b
1=3(3)+b
1=9+b
minus 9 both sides
-8=b
y=3x-8 is equation
There is the formula now just plug in the values and you will get your answer.
