The given line has the equation y=5x-2
This line has a slope = 5

since the line we are looking for is parallel to this one, therefore, its slope is also 5

The equation of the linear line has the general form:
y=mx+c where m is the slope and c is the y intercept
we got the slope =5 , therefore, the equation became:
y=5x+c
To get the value of c, we will use a point that bekongs to the line (1,4) and substitute in the form as follows:
y=5x+c
4=5(1)+c
c=4-5=-1

Based in tha above, the equation of the line is:
y=5x-1

In the triangle below what is the approximate value of x

sveta [45]

You can solve using the pythagorean theorem which is

a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse in a right triangle.

12^2+x^2=24^2
144+x^2=576
x^2=432
x =20.78 (approximately)

6.) Alan, Becky, Jesus, and Mariah are four students in the chess club. If two of these students will be selected to represent t

Artist 52 [7]

Let's begin by listing out the information given to us:

There are four students: n = 4

Number of students to be selected: r = 2

To calculate the combination of 2 students to be chosen, we use:

$\begin{gathered} ^4C_2=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}=\frac{4!}{(4-2)!}=\frac{4!}{2!} \\ ^4C_2=\frac{4\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}{2\cdot1}=\frac{4\cdot3}{1}=12 \\ ^4C_2=12 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, there 12 possible combinations from these
