Answer:

y = 1/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

When 2 lines are parallel, they have the same slope.

Step 1: Define variables

Random point (2, 6)

<em>m</em> = 1/2

y = 1/2x + b

Step 2: Find <em>b</em>

6 = 1/2(2) + b

6 = 1 + b

5 = b

Step 3: Rewrite parallel linear equation

y = 1/2x + 5

Nina buys a small rug in the shape of a kite. The width of the rug is half its height. What are the width and area of the rug? (

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

$Width = 20\ in$

$Area = 400\ in^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for kite dimension

Required

Determine the width and the area

From the attachment, the height of the kite is:

$Height = 31\ in + 9\ in$

$Height = 40\ in$

The width which is half the height is:

$Width = \frac{1}{2} * Height$

$Width = \frac{1}{2} * 40\ in$

$Width = 20\ in$

The area is:

$Area = \frac{Height * Width}{2}$

$Area = \frac{40\ in * 20\ in}{2}$

$Area = 40\ in * 10\ in$

$Area = 400\ in^2$
