Find an equation of the line with the given properties parallel to y=-1/3x-2 containing the pt (6,-10)

y + 10 = -1/3 (x - 6) OR y = -1/3x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

take the slope of y = -1/3x - 2 (the slope is -1/3)

plug the slope and the point into this equation: y - y1 = m (x - x1)

m represents your slope, y1 and x1 represnt your points so just plug in

so y + 10 = -1/3 (x - 6) or y = -1/3x-8 (subtract 10 from both sides and distribute the -1/3 to (x -6)).

step-by-step explanation:

(s)he  is right it would be 5.5% because it is smaller than 15.5% or anything smaller than 15.5% in general

let's solve your equation step-by-step.

4x+2=2x+12

step 1: subtract 2x from both sides.

4x+2−2x=2x+12−2x

2x+2=12

step 2: subtract 2 from both sides.

2x+2−2=12−2

2x=10

step 3: divide both sides by 2.

2x

2

=

10
