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

4 gallons of paint cost a total $22.00. How much will 14 gallons cost? A. $60.50 B. $242.00 C. $82.00 D. $77.00
Nana76 [90]
The answer is D. $77.00. To get the cost for a single gallon you divide $22 by 4 gallons you get $5.50. To get the cost for 14 gallons you multiply $5.50 by 14 and you get the answer $77.00.

When Anthony was born, his mom put aside $1000 in a savings account that earns 1% interest compounded monthly. When Anthony is 1
Elanso [62]
The applicable formula is;

A = P(1+r)^nt

Where
A = Accumulate amount
P = Initial invested amount
r = Annual interest rate
n = Number of  payments in a year
t = Time in years

First part of the question: Accumulated amount after 18 years
Substituting;
A = 1000(1+0.01)^12*18 = $8,578.61

Since the car costs $15,000 and the amount in the bank after 18 years is $8,578.61, Anthony wouldn't be able to afford the car.

Second part of the question: The amount which should have been deposited for Antony to afford the car after 18 years

15,000 = P (1+0.01)^12*18
15,000 = P*8.5786
P = 15,000/8.5786 = $1,748.54
Therefore, for Antony to afford the $15,000 after 18 years, the mum should have deposited $1,748.54.
