Which equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y =12 and passes through point -2,4

Mathematics

Gnesinka [82]3 years ago

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

21 feet to 8 yards write a ratio as a fraction in simplest form without any units
Dmitriy789 [7]

We know, 3 feet = 1 yard.

We have to convert feet to yards to calculate the ratio so that the final answer doesn't have any unit.

Therefore, 21 feet = \frac{21 feet}{3 feet}yards = 7 yards

Thus, the ratio

\frac{21feet}{8yards} =\frac{7yards}{8yards} =\frac{7}{8}

The fraction \frac{7}{8} is already in its simplest form.

Therefore, the given ratio as a fraction in the simplest form without any units is \frac{7}{8}
