Answer: a = \frac{u+2}{2}

We want to isolate a. Add both sides by 2. Then we get u + 2 = 2a. To get just a, we can divide by 2 to get (u+2)/2.

Hope that helped,

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We want to get a on one side of the equation all on its own.

Let's flip the equation around so a ends up on the left. Usually variables are supposed to be on the left.

2a-2=u

We add 2 to both sides.

2a=u+2

We divide both sides by 2.

a=(u+2)/2

We divide both u and 2 by 2 so our answer is completely simplified.

a=1/2u+1.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D

Which pair of lines is parallel? A. y=4x+1 and y+4=5 B. y=-2+x and 2y-2x=-2 C. y=1/4x + 2 and y-2=1/2x D. y=1/5x+1 and 5y+x= 10
sdas [7]

Answer:

B. y=-2+x and 2y-2x=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

The equation 0of a line is tipically written as y=mx + b, where 'm' represents the slope and 'b' the y-intercept.

Let's evaluate each of the options:

A. y=4x+1 and y+4x=5

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=4x+1 → m=4

y=5-4x → m=-4

Given that they have different slopes, they are not parallel.

B. y=-2+x and 2y-2x=-2

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=-2+x → m=1

y=-1 + x → m=1

Given that the equations have the same slope, they are parallel.

C. y=1/4x + 2 and y-2=1/2x

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=1/4x + 2  → m=1/4

y=1/2x+2 → m=1/2

Given that they have different slopes, they are not parallel.

D. y=1/5x+1 and 5y+x= 10

Writing the equations in the slope-intercept form, we get:

y=1/5x+1 → m=1/5

5y+x= 10 → y=2 - 1/5x → m=-1/5

Given that they have different slopes, they are not parallel.

What is the equation in point slope form of the line that passes the points (2,-3) and(-5,8)
Grace [21]

Answer:

y+3=-11/7(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(8-(-3))/(-5-2)

m=(8+3)/(-7)

m=11/-7

m=-11/7

y-(-3)=-11/7(x-2)

y+3=-11/7(x-2)
