Answer:

y= 2x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Parallel lines have the same gradient. Hence m=2.

Subst. m=2 into the equation:

y=2x +c

Now substitute a coordinate.

When x= -2, y=1,

1= 2(-2) +c

1= -4 +c

c= 1 +4

c=5

Thus, the equation of the line is y= 2x +5.

What inequality is shown on the graph ?

Liula [17]

The inequality of the graph that is given is: y < 2x - 3.

<h3>How to Write the Inequality of a Graph?</h3>

First find the slope (m) = rise / run of the line.

Rise = 2 units

Run = 1 unit

Slope (m) = 2/1 = 2

Y-intercept (b) = -3.

Since the shaded side is at the left, we are going to use the ">" sign. Substitute m = 2 and b = -3 into y < mx + b.

y < 2x - 3

which scatterplot shows a strong association between two variables even though the correlation is probably near zero?

worty [1.4K]

The scatterplot that shows a strong association between two variables even if the correlation is near zero is graph C.

<h3>What is zero correlation?</h3>

Correlation is a measure that is used in statistics to measure the linear relationship that exists between two variables.

Zero correlation is when there is no linear relationship between the variables been studied. When it is shown on a graph, zero correlation would have no clear linear trend either positive or negative. A linear trend is roughly a straight line. A linear trend is positive if it slopes upward and negative if it slopes downward.

Apply the dilation D to the polygon with the given vertices. Name the coordinates of the image points. Identify and describe the

lukranit [14]

To solve this you just do ehat was done to the coordinates. So x goes from x to 4x do you are mutiplying by 4. and the same goes for y. so your scale factor is 4

2 times 4 is 8 and 1 times 4 is four

A(8,4)

4 times 4 is 16 and 1 times four is four

B(16,4)

Four times four is sixteen and negitive three times four is negitive 12

C(16,-12)
