Write an equation that is parallel to 3x- 2y = 14 and passes through the point (-6, -11).

y=3/2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is parallel it will have the same slope. Put the equation into y=mx+b form in order to easily identify the slope. 3x-2y=14. Subtract the 3x and divide by -2From there you can see that the equation is y=-7 +3/2x. We cannot keep the -7 since it is parallel and wont have the same y intercept. Plug in the -11 for the y and the -6 for the x and solve for b (the new y int.) It should look like -11= 3/2(-6) +bFrom there b should be -2. Final step is to rewrite the equation to be y=3/2x-2!

to find the unit price, we must figure out the cost of one item (in this case one dish towel).   to do this, we divide the total price ($7.92) by the number of items bought (for this problem it is 8, because there are eight dish towels in one pack).  

$7.92/8 = $0.99

therefore, the unit price, or the price of one dish towel, is $0.99.

hope this !
