The equation of line S is y = 8x − 7 .
Parallel to line S is line T , which passes through the point (–1, 1) .
What is the equation of line T ?

Write the equation in slope-intercept form. Write the numbers in the equation as proper fractions, improper fractions, or integers.

y = 8x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient,

So m = 8

y = 8x + c

When x = -1 ,y = 1

1 = 8(-1) + c

c = 9

y = 8x + 9

y = 8x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

c represents the y intercept.

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The equation of the given line S is

y = 8x - 7

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = 8

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of line T passing through (- 1, 1) is 8

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = 8, x = - 1 and

y = 1 into y = mx + c. It becomes

1 = 8 × - 1 + c

1 = - 8 + c

c = 1 + 8 = 9

The equation becomes

y = 8x + 9

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
