Find an equation of the line that (a) has y-intercept of 7 and (b) is parallel to the line -5x-6y=1

write your answer in the form y=mx+b

The answer to your question is    5x + 6y - 42 = 0  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

y-intercept = 7

parallel to -5x - 6y = 1

Process

1.- Find the slope

                             - 6y = 5x + 1

                                 y = -5/6 x - 1/6

As the lines are parallels, the slope is the same in both lines

                                 m = -5/6

2.- Find the equation of the new line

If the line has a y-intercept of 7, it means that the point is (0, 7)

                       y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitution

                      y - 7 = -5/6 (x - 0)

Simplification

                      y - 7 = -5/6x

Equal to zero

                     5/6x + y - 7 = 0

Multiply by 6

                     5x + 6y - 42 = 0           This is the equation of the line

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
