Henry was putting his spare change into piles. He had three piles of quarters and five piles of dimes. If each pile had nine coins in it, how many coins did he have total?

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. : )

44

step-by-step explanation:

the

3 ft is your answer

set the two equations for y equal to each other. solve for x. this will be the x-coordinate for the point of intersection. use this x-coordinate and plug it into either of the original equations for the lines and solve for y.
