Question 6(Multiple Choice Worth 1 points) (04.02 MC) A contractor is building a new subdivision on the outside of a city. He has started work on the first street and is planning for the other streets to run in a direction parallel to the first. The second street will pass through (1, 5). Find the equation of the location of the second street in standard form.

Respuesta :

The equation of the second street is y= -x+6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph for the question uploaded below.

The street 1's slope will be the same for street 2 since they are parallel.

To find the slope of the street 1, choose two points from the passing line.

The formula for finding slope,[tex]m=\frac{rise}{run}[/tex].

[tex]rise =y_{2}-y_{1}[/tex] and [tex]run =x_{2}-x_{1}[/tex].

Here let us take (0,1) and (1,0).

rise=0-(1). and run =1-0.

rise= -1 and run 1.

[tex]m=\frac{-1}{1}[/tex].

m= -1.

The line equation is given by y=mx+c.

substitute m value in this equation.

y= -x+c.

we know that the point that street 2 pass through is (1,5).

Substitute this point to find the y-intercept c.

5= -1+c.

c=1+5.

c=6.

∴ The equation for the second street is y= -x+6.
