Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -5/2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation of the line, we first need to find the slope of the original line. We can do that by solving for y.

5x + 2y = 12

2y = -5x + 12

y = -5/2x + 6

Now that we have a slope of -5/2, we know the new slope will be the same since parallel lines have the same slope. So we can use it along with the point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = -5/2(x + 2)

y - 4 = -5/2x - 5

y = -5/2x - 1

Yanka [14]

Answer:

3x+5 =x+2

3x-x=2-5

2x= –3

x=-3/2

4y+7=y+3

4y–y =3-7

3y=–4

y= —4/3

Gabriel has 15 5/8 pounds of clay. He will use 7/10 pound to make each bowl. After making 8 bowls he wonders how many more bowls
evablogger [386]
7/10 x 8 = 5 6/10
15 5/8 - 5 6/10 = 10 1/40
10 1/40 / 7/10 = 14 9/28
so he can make 14 more bowls and 9/28 of another bowl so you round down to 14 complete bowls.
