Hey there!
Conveniently, not a lot of math is required on this one. Let's go through slope intercept form, which is defined as:
y = mx+b
m = slope
b = y intercept
We know that parallel lines must have the same slope. Therefore, our new slope is 1/2. Now normally, we'd have to solve for the y intercept, but we're lucky this time. It's already given to us in the form of (0, -2) - which means the line crosses the y-axis at (0, -2).
That means your equation is:
y = 1/2x - 2
Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Jane is playing a game with Mike. Right now, Mike is winning, he has 10 more than 5 times the points that Jane has. If Jane has 47 points, how many points does Mike have?

</span><span>Martha is doing an inventory of all the goods in her shop. For the brand Toms shoes, she should have recieved an order that would have brought the total number of Toms shoes in her store to 10 more than 5 times the number of shoes she has now. If Martha has 89 pairs of Toms in her store, how many would she have had, if she had recieved the delivery?
hope this helped :)

-4a - 6 = -12
-4a = -12 + 6
-4a = -6
a = -6/-4
a = 6/4
a = 3/2
a = 1 1/2
The answer is c
