The answer is 7 remainder 2.
You have to plug in the given numbers and perform each operation. Let me know if you have questions. The answers are circled.
The standard form is 3x+4y=8
Answer:
y = 1/2x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope.
Therefore the new equation will have a slope(m) = 1/2
Substitute m = 1/2 and point (-2, 6) into y = mx + b to solve for "b"
y = mx + b
6 = 1/2(-2) + b
6 = -1 + b
7 = b
The new equation: y = mx + b
y = 1/2x + 7
don't be alarmed the two lines just mean absolute value, the problem is asking what is m. the problem is asking what number multipyed by 2, subtracted by 1 will give you 3?
2x2=4 right?
so 4-1=3 there!
m=4
so the problem is 2(4)-1=3
i hope i explained well enough!
