A line has this equation: y= -9x-2 Write an equation for the parallel line that goes through (2, -3).

y = - 9x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 9x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 9

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - 9x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (2, - 3) into the partial equation

- 3 = - 18 + c ⇒ c = - 3 + 18 = 15

y = - 9x + 15 ← equation of parallel line

step-by-step explanation:

30 miles

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 60 seconds equals 1 minute and 60 minutes 1 hour

44 ft       60 sec     60 min     158400   ft

  *   *   =

1 sec       1 min       1 hour         hour

we know that there are 5280 ft per mile

158400   ft       1 mile         30 miles

  *   =

1   hour               5280 ft     1 hour

so in 1 hour   it can travel 30 miles
