Slope-intercept form:  y = mx + b

(m is the slope, b is the y-intercept or the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis)

For lines to be parallel, they need to have the same slope.

To find the slope (m), use the slope formula:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}      And plug in the two points

(-2, 7) = (x₁, y₁)

(4, -5) = (x₂, y₂)

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-5-7}{4-(-2)}   (two negative signs cancel each other out and become positive)

m=\frac{-5-7}{4+2}

m=\frac{-12}{6}     Simplify the fraction

m = -2        

The slope is -2, so the parallel line's slope is also -2.

Your answer is C

A new health drink has 130% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for a certain vitamin . The rad for this vitamin is 45 mg.
Maslowich

Answer:

58.5 mg

Step-by-step explanation:

Drink: 130% of RDA of vitamin X

RDA vitamin X = 45mg

130% of 45 = mg in the drink

130% = 130/100 = 1.3

130% of 45 = 1.3*45 = 58.5

So, this new drink has 58.5 mg of vitamin

hey can you help me w/ some math ?? i make $8.50 an hour. monday through sunday only wednesday’s off. how much will i have in 2
enot [183]

Answer:

$29252.1669

Approximately $29252.1

Step-by-step explanation:

For Monday,  Tuesday and Sunday:

=> 8.50 x 5 x 3

=> 8.5 x 15

=> 127.5

I multiplied 8.5 and 5 because you work for 5 hours. Then multiplied them with 3 it is for 3 days.

For Friday, Saturday, Thursday:

=> 8.5 x 6 x 3

=> 8.5 x 18

=> 153

I multiplied 8.5 and 6 because you work for 6 hours. Then multiplied them with 3 because it is for 3 days.

In 1 week you get:

=> 153 + 127.5

=> 280.5

In 1 year there are 52.1429 weeks.

So, you get:

=> 52.1429 x 280.5

=> 14626.08345

For 2 years, you get:

=> 14626.08345x 2

=>  29252.1669

=> Approximately $29252.1
