9) given the equation y=-3x - 7
a) what is the slope of the line parallel to the given line?

- 3

Step-by-step explanation:

if lines are parallel then their slopes are the same.

So, for the line with equation y = - 3x - 7, slope = -3,

and for parallel line slope also = - 3.

g(x) = x² + 2

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the graphs are the same shape.

the only difference is that the red graph is 2 units higher than the blue graph.

that is to say that the red graph is simply the blue graph that has been moved vertically by 2 units in the positive y direction.

hence

g(x) = f(x) + 2

or

g(x) = x² + 2

the answer is 5636.7
