-2 (3+5y-10) = 34
Step 1) -6-10y+20=34
Step 2) -10y+20=40
Step 3) -10y=20
Step 4) y = -2
Answer is -2

is the logical or/disjunction symbol.

means "

or

". Disjunction is commutative, which means

is equivalent to

.
So if

represents

and

represents

, then

means

or

.
<em>z</em> = 3<em>i</em> / (-1 - <em>i</em> )
<em>z</em> = 3<em>i</em> / (-1 - <em>i</em> ) × (-1 + <em>i</em> ) / (-1 + <em>i</em> )
<em>z</em> = (3<em>i</em> × (-1 + <em>i</em> )) / ((-1)² - <em>i</em> ²)
<em>z</em> = (-3<em>i</em> + 3<em>i</em> ²) / ((-1)² - <em>i</em> ²)
<em>z</em> = (-3 - 3<em>i </em>) / (1 - (-1))
<em>z</em> = (-3 - 3<em>i </em>) / 2
Note that this number lies in the third quadrant of the complex plane, where both Re(<em>z</em>) and Im(<em>z</em>) are negative. But arctan only returns angles between -<em>π</em>/2 and <em>π</em>/2. So we have
arg(<em>z</em>) = arctan((-3/2)/(-3/2)) - <em>π</em>
arg(<em>z</em>) = arctan(1) - <em>π</em>
arg(<em>z</em>) = <em>π</em>/4 - <em>π</em>
arg(<em>z</em>) = -3<em>π</em>/4
where I'm taking arg(<em>z</em>) to have a range of -<em>π</em> < arg(<em>z</em>) ≤ <em>π</em>.
Parallel = same slope
Y = 1/5x + b
Plug in point
-8 = 1/5(-10) + b
-8 = -2 + b, b = -6
Equation: y = 1/5x - 6
