Hi there!

Since the slope of a lime that is parallel is always the same, the answer is a. -1.

Since the slope of this equation is -1, the slope of any other parallel line is the same (or else the lines would intersect and not new parallel anymore).

Hope this helps!

How to solve for a, b,

professor190 [17]

It looks like the length of a and b should be the same. You can use the Pythagorean theorem (only works with right triangles):

a² + b² = c² (c is the hypotenuse or the longest side of the triangle, a and b are the other side lengths of the triangle)

a² + (4)² = (5)²

a² + 16 = 25

a² = 9

a = 3

a and b have a length of 3

Madison works as a salesperson at an electronics store and sells phones and phone accessories, and makes a fixed commission for

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Price of each phone: $\$9$

Price of each accessory: $\$3.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "p" the price in dollars of each phone and "a" the price in dollars of each accessory.

Set up a system of equations:

$\left \{ {{8p+10a=107} \atop {4p+23a=116.50}} \right.$

You can use the Elimination Method to solve the system.

Multiply the second equation by -2 and add both equations:

$\left \{ {{8p+10a=107} \atop {-8p-46a=-233}} \right.\\............................\\-36a=-126\\\\a=\frac{-126}{-36}\\\\a=3.5$

Substitute the value of "a" into the first equation and solve for "p":

$8p+10(3.5)=107\\\\8p=107-35\\\\p=\frac{72}{8}\\\\p=9$
