-4 = 3x + 6y
6y = -3x - 4
y = -1/2x - 2/3.....slope here is -1/2. A parallel line will have the same slope

ax - 8y = 12
-8y = -ax + 12
y = (-a/-8)x + 12......so a would have to be -4 because -(-4) / -8 = -4/8 = -1/2

ur answer is : a = -4

ziro4ka [17]

The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories (in thousands) and x is years after 1960. Choose the correct statement.

Answer: In the given regression equation, the calories are in thousands. Therefore, the slope 0.005 (0.005 x 1000 =5 calories)  means the consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year.

Hence the option a. Consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year. is correct
