Question

Can u guys PLEASE answer this question ASAP. if y= (a+2)x+7 is parallel to y=3x-4, find the value of a

Answer 1

a = 1

Explanation:

The factor in front of x must be the same in both equations.

So (a+2) in the first must be 3 (like it is in the second).

That is the case when a=1.

So the +7 and the -4 are not relevant!
