Answer:
second option
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope, and since the slope of the given line is 1/2, we know the slope of the answer will be 1/2, which eliminates the first and last options. We know the slope and a point that belongs to the line, (-2, 1), so we can use point-slope formula to derive the equation of the line.
y - 1 = 1/2(x + 2)
y - 1 = 1/2x + 1
y = 1/2x + 2
Simplifying
a + 5 = -5a + 5
Reorder the terms:
5 + a = -5a + 5
Reorder the terms:
5 + a = 5 + -5a
Add '-5' to each side of the equation.
5 + -5 + a = 5 + -5 + -5a
Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
0 + a = 5 + -5 + -5a
a = 5 + -5 + -5a
Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0
a = 0 + -5a
a = -5a
Solving
a = -5a
Solving for variable 'a'.
Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '5a' to each side of the equation.
a + 5a = -5a + 5a
Combine like terms: a + 5a = 6a
6a = -5a + 5a
Combine like terms: -5a + 5a = 0
6a = 0
Divide each side by '6'.
a = 0
Simplifying
a = 0
-(2/9)
=-{(1/9)+(1/9)}
=-{0.111...+0.111...}
=-0.222...
Answer:
285
Step-by-step explanation:
1175 divided by 412 = 2.85194174757
that would be around 2.85
