Answer:
<h2>The answer is option A</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line is y = mx + c
where
m is the slope
c is the y intercept
To find the equation of the parallel line we must first find the slope of the original line
From the question the original line is
y = 2/3x - 7
Comparing with the general equation above
Slope = 2/3
Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same
Slope of parallel line = 2/3
So the equation of the line using point
(12 , 2 ) and slope 2/3 is
We have the final answer as

We have 29 people who chose fishing out of 18+29 people who filled out the survey. We don't use 60 because not everyone filled out the survey, and we're only focusing on survey participants. The "times 100" at the end will move the decimal point 2 spots to the right, and convert it to percent form.
For example, if you had 2 people who liked fishing out of 8 total then 2/8 = 0.25 = 25% of the people like fishing.
