Use

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=4(x-1) Now why 4??Because parallel lines have the exact same slope

y+2=4x-4

y=4x-4-2

y=4x-6

Hope it helps!

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Given the linear equation, y = 4x + 2:

Since the slope = 4, then we can assume that the slope of the line parallel to y = 4x + 2 will have the same slope.

We’ll use this slope and the given point, (1,-2), and plug these values into the slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) to solve for the y-intercept (b):

y = mx + b
-2 = 4(1) + b
-2 = 4 + b

Subtract 4 from both sides to isolate and solve for b:

-2 - 4 = 4 - 4 + b
-6 = b

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the y-intercept is -6 . Now, we can finally establish the linear equation of the line parallel to y = 4x + 2, which is:

y = 4x - 6.

Attached is a screenshot of the graph of both equations to show that we came up with a line parallel to the original equation.

Use the information in the diagram to find the length of segment AD. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Lana71 [14]

Based on the lengths of the given triangles and the length of segment BD, the length of segment AD is 22.20.

<h3>What is the length of segment AD?</h3>

The triangle ABC is a right angled triangle with segment AB being the hypothenuse.

We can therefore find this length using the Pythagoras Rule:

Hypothenuse ² = a² + b²

Hypothenuse ² = 28.6² + 23.2²

Hypothenuse ² = 1,356.20

Hypothenuse = √1,356.20

= 36.83

Length of AD:
= AB - BD

= 36.83 - 14.60

= 22.2

How to simplyfy 2x+2x
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Your answer is 4x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 2+2

Combine your x's (like terms)

then you got 4 from 2+2

Add the leftover x so it makes 4+x then add it will give you 4x.
