Rewrite the given equation in slope intercept form:

5 y = 10 – 2 x

y = - 0.4 x + 2

 

Since the two lines are parallel, therefore they have similar slope which is – 0.4, so the equation is:

y = - 0.4 x + b

Given that x = 5, y = -4, find for b:

-4 = - 0.4 (5) + b

b = -2

 

So the answer is:

y = - 0.4 x – 2

or

<span>2 x + 5 y = - 10</span>

Licemer1 [7]

Given :

Rema purchased 18 ounces of gold in 2005 for $414 per ounce in order to try to diversify her investment portfolio.

She sold a third of her holdings in gold in 2009 at a price $953 per ounce. She sold the rest of her gold holdings in 2010 for $1,367 per ounce.

To Find :

What is Prema’s profit in 2009 and 2010.

Solution :

Price of one third ounces of gold, in 2005 is :

P = $414/3 = $138 .

Profit from selling them in 2009 is :

P1 = $(953 - 138) = $815 .

Profit from selling them in 2010 is :

P2 = $( 1367 - ( 414 - 138 ) ) = $1091 .

Therefore, Prema's profit in 2009 is $815 and 2010 is $1091.

Hence, this is the required solution.
