2. Write the equation of the line parallel to y = -4x/3 + 5 thru (-6,1). Show all work.​

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the equation using the point-slope formula.

where (x₁, y₁) is the point and m is the slope.

We already know the point is (-6,1). We must find the slope.

We are told the line is parallel to y=-4x/3 +5. Since this line is in y=mx+b form, the slope (m) must be -4/3. Parallel lines have equal slopes, so the line we are finding also has a slope of -4/3

Next, define values for the variables.

Substitute the values into the formula.

Now put the equation into the form y=mx+b. First, distribute the -4/3 .

Add 1 to both sides to isolate y.

The equation of the line is y=-4/3x -7

step-by-step explanation:

given perimeter: 28cm

length: 9cm

atp,

2(l+w)=p of the reactangle

2(9+x)=28

18+2x=28

2x=28-18

x=10/2

x=5

therefore width is 5 cm

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
