Answer:

The answer is

y =  -  \frac{5}{2} x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If two equations are parallel it means that both their gradients are equal. We were given the equation:

5x +  2y = 12

in order to find the gradient of this equation that we are given we have to ensure that it is in its simplest form:

5x + 2y = 12 \\ 2y = 12 - 5x \\  \frac{2y}{2}  =  \frac{12}{2}  -  \frac{5}{2} x \\ y = 6  -  \frac{5}{2} x \: \\ or \: \\ y =   - \frac{5}{2} x + 6

Therefore the gradient of the parallel line with points (-2, 4) is also -5/2

y = mx + c \\ 4 =  - \frac{ 5}{2} ( - 2) + c \\ 4 =  \frac{10}{2}   + c \\ 4 = 5 + c \\ 4 - 5 = c \\

c =  - 1 \\ hence \: the \: equation \: for \: the \: \\  parallel \: line \: is \\  \: y =  -  \frac{5}{2} x  - 1

What is the correct answer for this problem?Explain
bearhunter [10]
To solve this you would make a triangle, Assuming you had a piece of paper.

It would look like the picture included (where ever that is) sorry for the horrible drawing with mouse.

You can then you Pythagorean Theorem to solve this

a^{2} + b^2 =c^2

width will be (a) 

put in your variables

a^2 + 72^2 = 90^2
a^2 + 5184 = 8100

Subtract 5184 over and get 
a^2 = 2916

square root both sides and get 
a=54

the field is 54 meters wide

A cube has an edge length of 9 meters. What is its volume, in cubic meters?
rjkz [21]
<h3>Answer:  729 cubic meters</h3>

Work Shown:

volume = side*side*side

volume = 9*9*9

volume = 729

A slight shortcut would be to say 9^3 = 729

If a is an odd integer and b is an even integer, which of the following makes an odd integer?
Serga [27]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  D.) a+2b

Step-by-step explanation:

The integers 'a' and 'b' can be any, so you can choose a couple and evaluate these expressions to see what you get. For example, we can let a=1 and b=0. For these values, the offered expressions evaluate to ...

  A) 3(0) = 0 . . . even

  B) 1 +3 = 4 . . . even

  C) 2(1+0) = 2 . . . even

  D) 1 +2(0) = 1 . . . odd

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

These rules apply to even/odd:

  • odd × odd = odd
  • odd × even = even
  • even × even = even
  • odd + odd = even
  • odd + even = odd
  • even + even = even

Then A is (odd)(even) = even; B is (odd)+(odd) = even; C is (even)(whatever) = even; D = (odd)+(even) = odd.
