Answer:
y=x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve with the point-slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1). The line is parallel; both slopes are equivalent. Plug in the coordinates we have into the formula, along with the slope from the original equation (-1). To check, we can plug the coordinates back into the equation.
y-(1)=-1(x+3)
y-1=x+3
y=x+4
Check:
(1)=(-3)+4
1=1
Answer: B
Explanation: if you look at A and try to combine like terms, you will add the -x on the right side the the one on the left, cancelling out the x on the left. then you have 0=x+0, and unless x=0, it is not true.
With B, when you add x to the -x, you cancel it out, giving you 0=0, which is true. hope it helps!
The only error you made is on problem 3. Everything else is correct. Nice work.
-------------------------------------------------------
Here is how to solve problem 3
Plug x = 1 into the equation and solve for y
-3x + y = 1
-3*1 + y = 1 ... replace x with 1
-3 + y = 1
y - 3 = 1
y - 3 + 3 = 1 + 3 .... add 3 to both sides
y = 4
<h3>The answer is 4</h3>
-------------------------------------------------------
Verifying the answer:
Plug (x,y) = (1,4) into the equation. Both sides should be the same number after simplifying both sides.
-3x + y = 1
-3*1 + 4 = 1 ..... replace x with 1; replace y with 4
-3 + 4 = 1
1 = 1
The answer is confirmed.
If you were to graph -3x + y = 1, which is equivalent to y = 3x+1, you'll find that the point (1,4) is on this line.
The first (and most typical) way to find distance of two points is by using the distance formula.
One alternative is the Manhattan metric, also called the taxicab metric. This option is much more complicated, and rarely used in high school math. d(x,y)=∑i|xi-yi|
