Question

Can someone please help me?
Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (2, 6) and parallel to y = -3x - 4.
Options:
y=3x-12
y=-3x
y=-3x+12
y=3x

Answer 1

@Gabylovesyou @ikram002p @ganeshie8 @IMHERETOHELP

Answer 2

Ok, so we need to find the slope of y=-3x-4

Answer 3

do u know slope formula?

Answer 4

m=(y2-y1/x2-x1)

Answer 5

but....

Answer 6

we already know the slope

Answer 7

m=-3

Answer 8

So we can eliminate 2 answer choices right now, do u know which ones those r?

Answer 9

A and D?

Answer 10

yup!

Answer 11

So.....

Answer 12

substitute the value of x and see whcih one gives the the correct y output the will satisfy the given points

Answer 13

that will be the answer!!!!!

Answer 14

Can you help me with that because I am really confused on how to figure that out

Answer 15

ok, so we have narrowed it down to B and C right?

Answer 16

yes

Answer 17

so the points that they gave us are (2,6)

Answer 18

one sec

Answer 19

okay

Answer 20

\[(2,6)---.(x=2, y=6)---> Answer B. y=-3x, y=-3(2), y=-6\]

Answer 21

oh my mistake

Answer 22

the answer is C but thats how u solve it lol

Answer 23

ohhhh okay thank you so much. you showing me the steps has helped me know how you got it :)

Answer 24

Do you have time to help me with one more?

Answer 25

sure

Answer 26

The equation below represents Function A and the graph represents Function B:

Function A

f(x) = x - 9

Function B

Answer 27

which equation best compares the slopes of the two functions?

Answer 28

Options:
Slope of function B = 2 x Slope of Function A
Slope of function A = Slope of function B
Slope of function A = 2 x Slope of function B
Slope of function B = - Slope of function A

Answer 29

This is very easy, lol, what is the slope of Function A?

Answer 30

Is it what it tells you right in the beginning of the question?

Answer 31

The x=-9?

Answer 32

=x-9 I mean

Answer 33

ok, any time u just have a function that is like y=x+1, or y=x+2, the slope is 1 because there is only one x, if it is y=3/2x+1, then the slope is 3/2, so the slope of Function A is 1 because it is x-9, then as u read on in the question, it asks choice compares to the slopes of Function A and B, which means that function A and B have the same slope, which is 1. So B would be the best answer because the Slope of Function A is equal to the slope of Function B.

Answer 34

wait

Answer 35

let me check something

Answer 36

Alright

Answer 37

ok made another mistake lol

Answer 38

ok so in response to your first question,, always remember that slope is always the number in front of x, if there is no number, then the slope is 1

Answer 39

the slope of Function B is 2

Answer 40

I used slope formula

Answer 41

m=(y2-y1/x2-x1)

Answer 42

m is slope

Answer 43

I picked 2 x points and 2 y points

Answer 44

m=(-3-1)/(-1-1)=2

Answer 45

so the correct answer is C

Answer 46

oh okay haha. Thanks for the help :)
