You can use the cosine rule for this - you might have to change some of the letters around for it to make sense though. Hope this helps!
So the ratio of boys to girls is 12:24.. now, is that an equivalent ratio as 2 boys for 4 girls? or 2:4? let's see.

you could start simplifying the 12/24 fraction by dividing by some common multiple, say 2, and get 6/12, then divide by 3 and get 2/4 and stop there.
then you'll notice that 12/24 is really 2/4 in disguise.

Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel = same slope
Y = 1/5x + b
Plug in point
-8 = 1/5(-10) + b
-8 = -2 + b, b = -6
Equation: y = 1/5x - 6
