Parallel means "same slope," so y=mx+b where m is the slope. Therefore m=3/4
Now the new line's equation, in point-slope format: y-y1 = m (x-x1)
y-9 = 3/4 (x-4) ->> y-9 = 3/4x -3 ->> y=3/4x+6
4x + y = 54
8x + 2y = 104
8x + 8y - (8x + 2y) = 240 - 104
6y = 136
y=22 2/3
4x+ 22 2/3 = 54
4x= 31 1/3
x= 7 5/6
Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x - 5) - 5x = -4
Distrubute the 2 into the parentheses
2x - 10 - 5x = -4
Add 10
+10 +10
2x - 5x = 6
Simplify
-3x = 6
Divide
÷ -3 ÷ -3
x = -2
