To be parallel with that line the equation has to have the same slope as the equation given, like y = 10x + 3.
I'm guessing this is a slope problem, so the equation would be like this: y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Using this,

Which is equal to,
Hi there!

We can begin by making each fraction have a common denominator:
If we make each have a common denominator of ab, we get:

Simplify:

Multiply both sides by ab:

Move b to the opposite side:

Factor out b:

Divide by (ac - 1):

Answer:
y= - 1/6x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perpendicular line has slope of reciprocal opposite to the given: - 1/6, so the equation:
Finding b using the intersected point:
- -2= -1/6*6 +b
- b= -2 +1= -1
So the equation is:
Answer:
$4000 was invested at 4%, 2500 was invested at 3%
Step-by-step explanation:
First and foremost the question has to be define.
Total amount raised is $6500
Savings account percentage simple interest =3%
Government Bond: 4% simple interest
Equation for amount invested at each rate:
(6500-x)0.03 + 0.04x = 235
195 - 0.03x + 0.04x = 235
0.01x = 40
x = 4000
$4000 was invested at 4%, 2500 was invested at 3%
