X = -5 is the answer I believe
Assuming you meant 2/3
y=2/3x+1 and (-5,-2)
paralell means same slope
y=mx+b
m=slope
y=2/3x+1
sllope=2/3
point slope
y-y1=m(x-x1)
for slope=m
a point is (x1,y1)
slope=2/3
point=(-5,-2)
y-(-2)=2/3(x-(-5))
y+2=2/3(x+5)
or
y=2/3x+16/3
The flat screen TV that is marked up by 30% and 20% discount had a profit of $60 after being sold.
The mark up percentage is given by:
Mark up percentage = (selling price - cost price)/cost price
Since the original price is $1500, hence:
30% = (selling price - 1500)/1500
0.3 = (selling price - 1500)/1500
(selling price - 1500) = 450
Selling price = $1950
It was again sold at a discount of 20%:
Final selling price= 1950 - 20% of 1950 = 1560
Profit = 1560 - 1500 = $60
Hence $60 profit was made by the store for the sale of a flat screen TV.

Find x
5x-17 = 3x + 1
5x -3x = 17 + 1
2x = 18
2x/2 = 18/2
X = 9
Find the measure of FG
mFG = 5x - 17
mFG = 5(9) - 17
mFG = 45-17
mFG = 28
