Answer:
the first option is correct
since value of a will be found through division.
To solve a proof, you need to distinguish which is the hypothesis and which is the conclusion. The hypothesis is the starting point and the conclusion is the ending point. We go from hypothesis to conclusion. A conditional statement can be written as If A, then B. Where A is the hypothesis and B is the conclusion.
For example, take this theorem.
If two sides of a triangle<span> are congruent, then the angles opposite those sides are congruent.
</span>
We go from Two sides of a triangle are congruent to the angles opposite those sides are congruent.
The first statement's reason is pretty much always Given.
Statement | Reason
1. Two sides of a triangle are congruent 1. Given
.... After a bunch of steps
3. the angles opposite those sides are congruent. 3. Your postulate of definition of what reason you need to complete the last step.
Sorry if this is a little confusing.
Points on given line = (-12,-2) and (0,-4) because you can see them on the graph. Then draw a parallel line thru (0,6)
To get from (0,-4) to (0,6) your x stays constant and your y coordinate increased by 10. So your new point will do the same in relation to (-12,-2) the x will stay constant at -12 and your y will increase by 10 to +8.
So the answer is A (-12,8)
You can check this because parallel lines have the same slope so
y2-y1/x2-x1 should be equal for both lines.
Line 1: -4 - (-2) / 0 - (-12) = -2/12 = -1/6
Line 2: 6 - 8 / 0 - (-12) = -2/12 = -1/6
