Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form with slope -3 going through the point (2, -2)

y = - 3x + 4

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 )

Here m = - 3, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

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

- 2 = - 6 + c ⇒ c = - 2 + 6 = 4

y = - 3x + 4 ← equation of line

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )

2/4 is the answer

step-by-step explanation:

x= total pieces

both ate 9 pieces

mindy ate 3 so troy ate 6

6= (1/4)x

x =24
