Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = \frac{1}{5} x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{1}{5}

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = \frac{1}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (5, - 4 ) into the partial equation

- 4 = 1 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 1 = - 5

y = \frac{1}{5} x - 5 ← equation of parallel line

3x-1/5=x+1/3 solve for x
Maru [420]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you cross multiply then that will give you

9x - 3 = 5x + 5

collect like terms

9x - 5x = +5 + 3

= 4x = 8

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x that's 4

= 2

What is the slope of the line through (2,5) and (-1,2)?
Luden [163]

Answer:

The slope of the line is m = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is essentially change in height over change in horizontal distance, and is often referred to as "rise over run." It has applications in gradients in geography as well as civil engineering, such as the building of roads. In the case of a road the "rise" is the change in altitude, while the "run" is the difference in distance between two fixed points, as long as the distance for the measurement is not large enough that the earth's curvature should be considered as a factor. The slope is represented mathematically as:

m = y2-y1 / x2-x1

m = 2 - 5 / -1 - 2

m = -3 / -3

m = 1

X1 is 2

Y1 is 5

X2 is -1

Y2 is 2

BabaBlast [244]
There are two ways you can write it:
1. 30 + 6 + (1 × 1/10) + (3 × 1/100)
2. 30 + 6 + 0.1 + 0.03
Either is correct :)
