Answer:

10 mm/cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The conversion factor always has a value of 1. It is a fraction with the numerator equal to the denominator -- only the units are different.

The numerator units are the units you're converting to: millimeters. The denominator units are the units you're converting from: centimeters.

You know that 1 cm = 10 mm, so when you arrange the fraction as described, the conversion factor you're multiplying by is ...

$\boxed{\dfrac{10\,\text{mm}}{1\,\text{cm}}}$

8. Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 and passes through the

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Explanation:

part A identification for slope:

$\sf 2x + 5y = 15$

$\sf 5y = -2x + 15$

$\sf y = \frac{-2x + 15}{5}$

$\sf y = -\frac{2 }{5} x+3$

comparing with slope intercept form: y = mx + b

we can find that here the slope is $\bold -\frac{2}{5}$

part B, solving the equation:

if the line is parallel, then the slope will be same.

given coordinates: ( - 10, 1 )

using the equation:

y - y₁ = m( x - x₁ )

$\sf y - 1 = \bold -\frac{2}{5} (x --10)$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -4 + 1$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Extra information:

check the image below. this proves that the line is parallel and passes through point (-10, 1). the blue line is question line and red the answer line.
