Answer:

y= 2.5x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rearrange the equation so that it is in the form y = mx + c.

Add 5x to both sides:

-5x + 5x + 2y= 12 + 5x

2y= 5x + 12

Divide both sides by two:

2y/2= 5x/2 + 12/2

y= 2.5x + 6

2. Find the gradient of the line.

The gradient of the line is the coefficient (the number in front of) x.

For this line, it would be 2.5. (y= 2.5x + 6)

3. Start an equation for the parallel line.

Parallel lines have the same gradients.

This means that we know that the equation we are looking for will be:

y= 2.5x + c

4. Substitute in the values of x and y we have been given.

Coordinates come in the form (x, y), which means we know the values of x and y for one point. So, when x= 10, y=21.

We can substitute these into the equation we have started.

21= 2.5 x 10 + c

21= 25 + c

5. Solve for c.

Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation:

21- 25= 25- 25 + c

-4= c

6. Form the final equation.

The equation of the line parallel to -5x+2y=12 that passes through (10, 21) is:

y= 2.5x -4

If f(x) = 3x^2+x-2, then f(-2) =
Olin [163]

Answer:

f(-2) =8

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x^2+x-2

Let x = -2

f(-2) = 3 * (-2)^2 + (-2) -2

       = 3(4) -2 -2

        =12 -2-2

         =10 -2

         =8

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

30 and 36

Step-by-step explanation:

six times two equals 12

6 * 3 = 18

and six times four equals 24.

to get the next two multiples, You need to multiply 6 by 5, and then 6

Ben has $100 to go shopping. Does he have enough money to buy a $20 and a $72 pair of shoes if there is an 8.5% tax
Juli2301 [7.4K]

So, we first add the 20 and 72 together and you will get 92.

What I like to do next is usually 92/100x8.5. The tax would be then 7.82

92 + 7.82 = 99.82 < 100

The answer is yes.

Which relationship describes angles 1 and 2? Select each correct answer. A)adjacent angles
Talja [164]
Hey there!

As you can see, they are lying on the same line.

When two angles are on the same straight line, they are adjacent. 

Adjacent angles 
are supplmentary. 

Adjacent angles= 180 degrees Supplementary= 180 degrees

They are choices "A" and "B". 

I hope this helps!
