1. Octavia needs to replace a board on her deck that measures 12 1/8 ft. She has a board that is 18 3/4 ft long. After Octavia cuts off 12 1/8 ft from the 18 3/4 ft of the board, how many feet of board are left?

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )

you first to choose the points and then move from then as the slope you have

shorter then the tree
