Question

I need help on about 3 questions about parallel and perpendicular lines and equations. Somebody please help?

Answer 1

Question 1:

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -3x + 12 and passes through the point (-1, 6). (2 points)

y = 1/3 x + 7
y = -3x + 3
y =1/3 x + 3
y = -3x + 7

@amistre64 @Ashleyisakitty @allie_bear22 @Broganleab @Charlie_xD @canadalover_ Can anybody help please?!!!!

Answer 3

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA U THINK THAT YOU ARE SO STRONG I BET

Answer 5

I need help with Algebra. This has nothing to do with working out. I don't need you opinions and no, I don't think I'm strong. I have muscles that I work hard to get. You are just jealous.

Answer 6

Can you just stop? I need somebody to explain to me how to do this. I'm not going to explain myself to you. Either help me or get off of my question. Thanks.

Answer 10

YOUR CHEST IS SO SMALLLLL

Answer 11

Omg, I don't care about your opinions! Help me or leave! It's not a hard thing to do.

Answer 12

Alright, so how do we tell how a line is parallel? Do you know that?

Answer 13

GOOODDDDBYEEEE

Answer 14

Well, when you graph both of the lines they will be next to each other in a way and don't they have the same slope?

Answer 15

Exactly, they have the same slope. The equation they gave you was in Slope-intercept form, so we don't even have to convert it!
First thing we have to do is create a new equation with an equal sope, which will be:
\[y =-3x - b\]

Answer 16

Now you have to solve for b, by entering in a point.

Answer 17

So, \[6 = -3 \times -1 + b\] I'm sure you can do that on your own.

Answer 18

Oh, okay thank you!

Answer 19

I can solve the other questions too now :)

Answer 20

Awesome, sorry about that typo with the - b, that's wrong.
