Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that is parallel to y=8x+5 and goes through the point (-2,8)

The equation of the line would be y = 8x + 26

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation, we first need to note that they will have the same slope due to the definition of parallel lines. Knowing that, we can use the slope and point to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 8 = 8(x + 2)

y - 8 = 8x + 18

y = 8x + 26

y = 8x + 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a parallel line is the same as the slope in the equation given.  Use that slope (8) and the point given (-2, 8)  and plug into y = mx + b to find b

8 = -2 (8) + b

8 = -16 + b

24 = b

Write the new equation with the m and b

y = 8x + 24

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380

hope it *im kind of slow so idk if my answer is right*
