Please help me with this. What is the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 5x-2y=11?

Use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b to find the slope, m.

5x - 2y = 11  this equation is given in standard form 

-2y = 11 + 5x    add both sides by 5x and then divide all by -2

y = 5/2x - 11/2  

so the slope is 5/2.

hope this helped, God bless!

The slope of a line parallel to another line must have the same slope as the other line. So therefore, we just want to first find the slope of this line.

To do this, we can switch it to slope intercept form, which is y = mx + b.

-2y = -5x + 11

Notice that the y doesn't have a variable next to it in slope intercept form. This means you have to divide all the sides to -2 to cancel out that -2.

-2y = -5x + 11
/-2     /-2     /-2

y = 5/2x + 11/-2

Since in the equation, y = mx + b, the number in the position of m = the slope, we know that 5/2 is the slope.

So therefore, the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 5x - 2y = 11 must be 5/2.

Sketch the points (0,5,2),(4,0,-1),(2,4,6) and(1,-1,2) o a single set of coordinate axes?
nordsb [41]

Explanation:

As points have three coordinates i.e. x, y and z hence the sketch of the given four points is drawn in 3D shape and for that picture is attached here with this answer.

Points are given in the format as below

(value of x-coordinate , value of y-coordinate , value of z-coordinate)

In the attachment:

Point A = (0,5,2) (in blue color)

Point B = (4,0,-1) (in purple color)

Point C = (2,4,6) (in orange color)

Point D = (1,-1,2) (in black color)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ax + b

I see already the result (y = x/10 × 1/6), but let's go in formally.

we have multiple function points to use to officially calculate a and b.

1/6 = a×10 + b

2/3 = a×40 + b

5/6 = a×50 + b

1 2/3 = a×100 + b

let's e.g subtract equation 1 from equation 3.

4/6 = a×40 + 0

a = 4/40 / 6 = 4 / 240 = 1/60

1/6 = 10/60 + b

1/6 = 1/6 + b

b = 0

so, the function is

y = x/60

x = 25

y = 25/60 = 5/12 cups
