Find the y-intercept of a line parallel to 8x – 2y = 12 and passes through the point (5, 3).

-17

Step-by-step explanation:

8x -2y= 12

Divide the whole equation by 2:

4x -y= 6

Rewrite the equation into the slope-intercept form (y=mx+c, where m is the gradient while c is the y-intercept).

-y= -4x +6

y= 4x -6

Thus, gradient of given line= 4.

Since parallel lines have the same gradient, gradient of line= 4.

y= 4x +c

To find the y-intercept of the lone, substitute a pair of coordinates.

When x=5, y=3,

3= 4(5) +c

3= 20 +c

c= 3 -20

c= -17

Thus, the y-intercept of the line is -17.

answer: 1) twenty-seven times y

              2) twenty-seven multiplied by y

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4
