Answer:

Slope: 3.

Equation: y = 3x + 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel to each other will have the same slopes.

So, the slope of the new line will be 3.

Since we have the slope, and a set of coordinates the line passes through, we can find the equation. So far, we have y = 3x + b. x = -2, y = 2.

2 = 3(-2) + b

3(-2) + b = 2

-6 + b = 2

b = 8

So, the equation of the line will be y = 3x + 8.

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if the first set of numbers is all in one set, but I'll do my best to give you an answer.

Really all you need to do is use PEMDAS for the first question.

(Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, add, subtract. In that order)

$1 2 + 8 \div (9 - 5) \\ 12 + 8 \div 4 \\ 12 + 2 \\ 14$

Then to simplify that fraction next to it, notice that 0.018 is 3x 0.06.

that's a 3:1 ratio, so it ends up simplifying to this:

$\frac{3}{1}$

Lastly, to solve the division of that fraction. If you divide by a fraction, you multiply whatever it's dividing by its inverse.

So...

$\frac{5}{7} \div \frac{2}{5} \\ \frac{5}{7} \times \frac{5}{2} \\ \frac{25}{14}$

Answer:

6 vans and 6 buses

Step-by-step explanation:

v+b=12 this equation represents the amount of vehicles

6v + 55b = 366 this equation represents the amount of students per vehicle.

after solving you get v=6 and b=6
