You read 50 pages in an hour. Your sister reads 40 pages in an hour. Explain how to find out how many more pages you read than y

devlian [24]

Since 1/2 is equal to a half, you divide 50 and 40 by 2 and you'll get 25 and 20 and then you subtract 25 and 20 and you get 5 which is the answer!

Write the equation of the line that passes through (3, 4) and (2, –1) in slope-intercept form.

Alona [7]

First find the slope. 4+1/3-2 = 5/1 or 5. Plug in your points to find b. 4=5(3)+b. 4=15+b. b=-11. SO the equation is y=5x-11.

Are the graphs of −5y=2x+3 and y=25x+4 parallel, perpendicular, or neither?

saw5 [17]

Parallel graphs have the same slope. perpendicular has opposite reciprocal slopes. These equations have slopes of -2/5 and 25 so they are neither.
