7x - 12y = -32
-12y = -7x - 32
y = 7/12x + 8/3...slope here is 7/12. A parallel line will have the same slope.
so ur parallel line will be : y = 7/12x + b....and b can be anything but 8/3...it cannot be 8/3 because then there would be infinite solutions and parallel line do not have infinite solutions, they have no solutions because they do not intersect.
12,165 gallons
After multiplying 14 and 78 which will equal all the gallons leaked
You will get
1,092
After that just subtract
13,257
With 1,092
Which equals 12,165
It means for example instead of writing 2 2/5 You would write 12/5
You can find out an improper fraction by simply multiplying the denominator by the front number and adding the answer to you numerator
So, 2x5= 10. 10+2= 12. So 12/5
