Write an equation for the line parallel to y = –2x – 5 that contains P(–8, 4).

1 answer:

7 0

Here, Original Equation: y = -2x - 5
Compare it with, y = mx + b
So, Slope(m) = -2
Parallel line slope = -2 [ Same ]

Now, y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 4 = -2(x + 8)

In short, Your Answer would be Option B

Hope this helps!

This is not my answer I found it from another brainly

From the beginning we know we are dealing with two different rates. Distance is equal to (Speed X Time). We have two different speeds though. We will call the min speed = x and the max speed = y. With those two ideas in place we can make two equations for both Tony and Rae.

Tony:

2x+3.5y=355

Rae:

2x+3y=320

Now you can solve the equations by subtracting Rae's equation from Tony's

.5y=35 solve for y and you get 70

Now plug that y value back into either equation and you can solve for x. I'll use Rae's distance:

2x+3(70)=320

x=55
