<h3>Answer: 3x-2y = 5 (choice A)</h3>

=====================================================

Explanation:

The given graph passes through (0,2) and (2,5)

The slope of this line is

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (5-2)/(2-0)

m = 3/2

Since the y intercept is b = 2, we go from y = mx+b to y = (3/2)x+2, which is the equation of the graphed line shown.

Any parallel line will have the same slope, but a different y intercept.

-------------------

The parallel line must pass through (x,y) = (3,2). We'll use these coordinates along with m = 3/2 to find the y intercept b

y = mx+b

2 = (3/2)(3)+b

2 = 9/2+b

2-9/2 = b

4/2 - 9/2 = b

-5/2 = b

b = -5/2 ... is the new y intercept

The equation of the parallel line is y = (3/2)x-5/2, which is in slope intercept form

-------------------

Let's convert to standard form

y = (3/2)x-5/2

2y = 3x-5 .... multiply everything by the LCD 2 to clear out fractions

2y+5 = 3x

3x = 2y+5

3x-2y = 5 ... is the equation in standard form of the parallel line

-------------------

As a check, we can plug (x,y) = (3,2) into that last equation above to get

3x-2y = 5

3*3-2*2 = 5 ... replace x with 3, replace y with 2

9-4 = 5

5 = 5

Confirming that (x,y) = (3,2) is on the line.

Answer:

A fair die has 6 sides.

There are 3 odd numbers on a fair die so the probability would be 3/6

There are 4 numbers greater than 2 on a fair die o the probability of that would be 4/6

There is only one number that will make it square and that is 4. So the probability would be 1/6

x^2\leq16\\x\leq 4 \wedge x\geq -4\\x\in\langle-4,4\rangle

different approach:

x^2\leq16\\x^2-16\leq0\\(x-4)(x+4)\leq0

see attachment

x\in\langle-4,4\rangle
