Algebra.Com's Answer #71380 by edjones(8007)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A) 3x-4=y \n" ); document.write( "B) y-3x=8 \n" ); document.write( "Slope-intercept form: y=mx+b \n" ); document.write( "m is the slope. \n" ); document.write( "If both equations have the same slope (m) they are parallel or equal. \n" ); document.write( "A) is in the correct form already. Its m is 3. \n" ); document.write( "add 3x to B) to get: y=3x+8. its m=3 also. \n" ); document.write( "they are parallel. \n" ); document.write( "Easy, no? \n" ); document.write( "Ed \n" ); document.write( " |
