find the equation of a line that is parallel to the straight line 2x-y=-3 and crosses the x-axis at x=-5

y=2x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

In line equations its helpful to write your line in the form y = ax + b. This helps because a is always the gadient of the line and b is always the y intercept.

In this case it is y=2x+3

All parallel lines have the same gradient. The gradient of this line = 2.

If the line crosses the x axis at x=-5, then when x =-5 y = 0.

If you put all this in the form y =ax + b you get 0 = 2(-5) +b

So all you need to do to find b is rearrange. b = 10.

Therefore your line has gradient 2 and y intercept 10.

y = 2x + 10

∑

n = 1

substitute n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and sum the terms

= + + + 2² + 2³

= 0.5 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 8

= 15.5
