The line passes through (25, 3), and is parallel to the graph of y =9/4x + 5. If a decimal, round to the nearest whole number.

Respuesta :

The slope of the line is 9/4 for parallel lines like this.
y = mx + b is the general equation
y = 9/4 x + b is what you have so far
3 = 9/4 *25 + b  You need to solve for b.
3 = 56.25 + b
- 53.25 = b

y = 9/4 x - 53.25 I don't know which part to round. I suppose both
y = 2x - 53 is one possibility  If it is one of them then

y = 2.25 x - 53 or the other is
y = 2 x - 53.25
