if we look at the equation y = -2x - 1, is already in slope-intercept form, therefore, 
has a slope of -2.
now, parallel lines have exactly equal slopes, therefore a parallel to that one above, will have also a slope of -2, so we're really looking for a line whose slope is -2 and runs through -1, 7.

Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
The solution to both A and C would total to about 0. Also, in B both numbers are positives, so that would also be out of the case. If you are looking for the least value, the answer would be D since -3/4 -3/4 would equal -1.5, (or -1 1/2). Therefore, your answer would be D.
Hope that helps :D
Answer: 500
Step-by-step explanation: Good luck! :D
Answer:
= 98.7 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
ratio = 3:1:15
amount of sand needed = (15/19)*125 / 3 + 1 +15 =19
Well, 12x3=36 and 36>20 so Kay wouldn't have enough to pay the chaser (whatever a chaser is)
