To find the equation of a line that is parallel to your original equation and goes through a certain point on a graph, here's what you need to know:
First you need to find the slope of your original equation.
To do that, you need to convert it to slope intercept form (y = mx+b).
Add the x over, and then divide everything by 5 to get the y by itself.
Here's what that would look like (without the small steps that I mentioned):
-x + 5y = 25
5y = x + 25
y = 1/5x + 5
That's the original equation rewritten in slope intercept form.
The m represents the slope, so this equation's slope is 1/5.
Because you are given a point, and now you have a slope, the best and easiest route is using point slope form.
I've seen different versions of the equation base but I prefer y - y(sub1) = m(x - x(sub1))
But since I can't use subscripts in this, I'll use the one with h and k. The h is the x value of the point, and the k is the y value.
(h,k)
Then just substitute the values in and solve for y.
y - k = m(x - h)
y + 5 = 1/5(x + 5)
y + 5 = 1/5x + 1
y = 1/5x - 4
Your final answer is
y = 1/5x - 4
You can double check by using a graph. If the slopes are the same, the lines should be parallel.
I hope that helps. If anything didn't make sense, feel free to ask me.
Let the distance to his office be x, then
On monday, speed = x/20 miles per minutes = 3x miles per hour
On tuesday, speed = (3x + 15) miles per hour
Time = distance / speed
(20 - 6)/60 hours = x/(3x + 15) hours
7/30 = x/(3x + 15)
7(3x + 15) = 30x
21x + 105 = 30x
30x - 21x = 105
9x = 105
x = 105/9 = 11.7 miles
Therfore he travels an average of 11.7 miles to work.

Step-by-step explanation:
all you have to do is divide the two bottom numbers on each problem and the answer to the problem will be the same on top and bottom
Answer:
The marked price of the watch is $2,702.27.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since allowing 20% discount on the marked price of a watch, the value of the watch will be Rs. 2378, to determine, if the VAT of 10% is added, it's marked price, the following calculation must be performed:
1 - 0.2 = 0.8
0.8 x 1.1 = 2378
0.88 = 2378
0.88 = 2378
0.8 = X
0.8 x 2378 / 0.88 = X
1,902.4 / 0.88 = X
2,161.81 = X
0.8 = 2,161.81
1 = X
2,161.81 / 0.8 = X
2,702.27 = X
Therefore, the marked price of the watch is 2,702.27.
