Yes. The alg<span>ebraic sum of a negative mixed number and other mixed number.</span>
-1 1/3 + x = 2
<span>x= 2 + 1 1/3 </span>

<span>x = 3 1/3 </span>

So, the algebraic sum: (-1 1/3) + 3 1/3 = 2

Let x and y be two positive mixed numbers. So,

x > 1 and y > 1

Therefore,

x + y > 1 + 1

x + y > 2

x + y can't be equal to 2, since the sum of both of them is always greater than 2.

I hope this helps. =)

What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line whose equation is y=4/5x-3

PolarNik [594]

Answer: 4/5

Step-by-step explanation: For a line to be parallel to another line there must be two conditions true.

Condition 1: Both lines must have the same slope (i.e the same x in the form y = mx + b)

Condition 2: Both lines must have different y-intercepts (i.e different b in the form y = mx + b)

Thus, if you are looking for the slope of the line parallel to y = 4/5x - 3, we can look at condition 1, and see that the slope should also be 4/5 for the other line.
