No u add 5 !!



Around the Network

you add 5 to both sides...its been awhile



2 +5 = -5 + b +5
7 = b



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

none of what you people posted makes any sense to me at all

OK, so then 7 = b and y = 5x + 0 which would be y = 5x.

one good thing about these is you can check your work by actually graphing it, if its not parallel to 5x + 3 its wrong...and ur answer should be 5x + 7

Normally, your equation should look like this:

y = mx + b

Since it's parallel, you keep the same m and just replace the b with the value you just calculated (it should be 7). If it were to cut in 90 degree with the first equation, you would have to have m= -1/5 if I recall correctly and work to find b with that same m value... but you're probably not there yet.

It's been a while. o_O

thats too advanced lol....im not sure if hes there

I'm in Algebra 2 guys, spare me ;_;

I think I might need help with the graphing in a sec btw (can't graph for my life. Graphing is my weak point in math by far. Or is there a site out there that can graph for me? :P)


lol..u and me both..I hate graphing!!! i do everything else..but graphing ewww...I can try to help you

DL a free program called Graphmatica (google it)
