I would start with the standard form equation of the parallel line.
.. 5x -2y = 5(-2) -2(3) = -16
Then solve for y.
.. 2y = 5x +16 . . . add 2y+16; then divide by 2 for the next equation
.. y = (5/2)x +8 . . . . . . . corresponds to selection (B)

So, a line that is parallel to 5x-2y = -12, will have the same exact slope as that equation's, so what is it anyway?

$\bf 5x-2y=-12\implies 5x+12=2y\implies \cfrac{5x+12}{2}=y
\\\\\\
\cfrac{5x}{2}+\cfrac{12}{2}=y\implies \stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{5}{2}}x+6=y$

so, notice, from the slope-intercept form, it happens that the slope is 5/2, well, the line will have the same slope.

so we're looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 5/2 and runs through -2,3

$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1\\
&&(~ -2 &,& 3~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies \cfrac{5}{2}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-3=\cfrac{5}{2}[x-(-2)]
\\\\\\
y-3=\cfrac{5}{2}(x+2)\implies y-3=\cfrac{5}{2}x+5\implies y=\cfrac{5}{2}x+8$

what is the equation in point-slope form of the line passing through (0, 5) and (−2, 11)? (1 point) y − 5

makkiz [27]

According to the question, the line is through the points $(0,5)$ and $(-2,11)$

To calculate the slope using standard formula that is :

$m = \frac{(y(2)-y(1))}{(x(2)-x(1))} = \frac{(11-5)}{(-2-0)} =\frac{6}{-2} = -3$

Now the slope equation will be: $m(x(2)-x(1)) = (y(2)-y(1))$

$y-5 =(-3)(x-0) = y = -3(x)+5$

The slope-intercept form is: $y = -3x+5$

What is the equation of the line?

To represent the set of points in an algebraic form is known as the equation of line. The set of points represent lines in the coordinate system. The parameters can be calculated and those parameters are slope and y-intercept.

The mapping diagram shows a functional relationship

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$f(4)=\frac{1}{2}$

f(x) = 4 when x is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is the set of x values that make the function defined. Allowed x values for the function (mapping).

The Range is the set of y values that make the function defined. Allowed y values for the function (mapping).

Whenever we need to find f(a), suppose, then we look for "a" in the domain and see its corresponding value mapping in the range.
Whenever we will be given a value for f(x) = a, suppose, and we have to find "x", we look at the value a in the range and find corresponding x value in the domain.

Firstly, we need f(4), so we look for "4" in domain and see which number it corresponds to in range.

That is $\frac{1}{2}$
