Hi there Brook!

First, you need to find the slope of this linear line, because if two lines are parallel they have the same exact slope.

2y + 10x = -36  <-- Subtract 10x on both sides
2y = -10x - 36   <-- Divide everything by 2
y = -5x - 18  <-- Your re-organized linear equation, with the slope of -5.

Now that you know the slope is -5, but not the y-intercept since the line is different, look at the coordinate you have.  Since you know that an input of -1 makes an output of 4, you can create an equation:

4 = -5(-1) + b  <-- Four equals the slope times the input, plus the y-intercept
4 = 5 + b
b = -1, since 5 + (-1) = 4.

So, now your final equation is y = -5x -1

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The statement "Both of the numbers a and b cannot be even." is justified by the fact that a/b is simplified lowest terms

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to  show that the √2 is an irrational number.

And from the given steps of proof stated in the question, we need to find the assumption that justifies the fact : " Both of the number a and b cannot be even".

First take the given options :

Option a : √2 is a rational number

√2 being an rational or irrational has no relation of a and b to be even or odd. So, this option is rejected.

Option B : a/b is simplified lowest terms

This shows that a and b are not even because if a and b are even then a/b can be simplified in other lowest term.

Option c : √2 is a irrational number

Similarly, By using the inverse part of Option A, option c is also rejected.

Option d : The fact that b divides a evenly

This only shows that the a is even. This does not give any idea about b is even or not. So option D is also rejected.

Option E : The fact that a and b are whole numbers

This fact does not imply that the a and b are even or odd. So option E is also rejected.

Hence, The statement "Both of the numbers a and b cannot be even." is justified by the fact that a/b is simplified lowest terms
