Find the slope of every line that is parallel to the line on the graph.​

Answer:

-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

What are parallel lines?

Lines that are parallel never touch. They can extend infinitely and they will still never touch. In order for this to happen the slope of the two lines must be the same. So if we want to find the slope of every line that is parallel to the line on the graph, we simply find the slope of the line of the graph.

Finding the slope

We can find the slope using the following formula:

Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Where the x and y values are derived from any given points on the line (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

Here the given points are (-5,-1) and (0,-2)

So we have (x1,y1) = (-5,-1) meaning x1 = -5 and y1 = -1

We also have (x2,y2) = (0,-2) meaning x2 = 0 and y2 = -2

Now we plug these values into the formula

Recall formula : Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

==> Plug in x1 = -5 , y1 = -1 , x2 = 0 and y2 = -2

Slope=\frac{-2-(-1)}{0-5}

==> simplify numerator and denominator

slope = \frac{1}{-5}

So the slope of the line is -1/5

This means the slope of any parallel line to that line would also have a slope of -1/5

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   2 • 2 = 4  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  4  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   3 .

     -4    +    -1    =    -5  

     -2    +    -2    =    -4  

     -1    +    -4    =    -5  

     1    +    4    =    5  

     2    +    2    =    4  

     4    +    1    =    5  

Observation : No two such factors can be found !!

If x =2 find the value of q in the equation 3x-4=x+q​
Effectus [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

given x=2

and the equation

3x - 4 = x + q

to find the value of q , you need to make q the subject in the equation as shown below

q= 3x-x -4

q=2x-4

but x= 2

so just substitute the value of x in the equation for the q

q = 2(2) - 4

q=4-4

q=0

therefore the value of q is 0

What is the range of the function?
AleksAgata [21]
The range of the function on the graph is all real numbers greater than or equal to 2 because the range of a function is what the value of y could be, and y begins at 2 and keeps increasing indefinitely.
Hope this helps!
