The additive inverse of 7/2 would be -7/2 (option B) Since its. opposite !
A)is the additive inverse of C) ; C) is the additive inverse of A) (not your answer)
B. is the additive inverse for this problem (7/2) so thats how we found that this is your answer (answer)
D is the same thing for the problem (7/2) (not your answer)
7/2 isnt the additive inverse for 7/2 because they are the SAME not the opposite.
+ = - (Positive = negative)
- = + (negative = positive)
Answer: the answer is x+8= 1
First of all, let's find the slope of line L. To find the slope of a line, you write it in the explitic form 
, and consider the coefficient 
. So, we have
So, the slope of line L is 2/3.
Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope. So, line M has slope 2/3 as well, and we know that it passes through the point (3, -10).
When you are given the slope and a point 
of a line, its equation is given by
So, if you plug your values, you have
which you can simplify into
Replace the x in the expression by 0 and work it out:-
y-intercept = 2 (0)^2 - 7(0) + 9 = 9
Answer is option (4).
