Try this option:
1. if line (its equation is y1=k1*x+b1) y1||y, it means that k1=k. k1=1/2.
2. using the coordinates of point (-2;1) and substituting them into equation y1=k1*x+b1 (where k1=1/2):
1=1/2 *(-2)+b1; ⇒ b1=2.
3. if k1=1/2 and b1=2, then parallel line is:
y1=1/2x+2.

answer: y₁=0.5x+2

if fifty cents is divided equally among three friends there will be some cents left how many cents will be left

Greetings!

This can be solved by dividing 50 by 3 (the amount of friends, you're spiting the money with.)

50/3=16.6667

We have to round down in order to get a whole number: 16

16*3=48
50-48=2

If 50 cents is divided equally among three friends, each would get 16 cents and there would be 2 cents left over.

Hope this helps.

7. Write the equation -3x +2y = 7 in slope-intercept form.

Answer:

y = 3/2x + 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is when y is the subject. So we make y the subject:

Add 3x to both sides :

2y = 3x + 7

Now we divide both sides by 2 :

y = 3/2x + 7/2
