40% are girls or more accurate would be 14

Solution:

What is 40% of 35?

Y is 40% of 35

Equation: Y = P% * X

Solving our equation for Y

Y = P% * X

Y = 40% * 35

Converting percent to decimal:

p = 40%/100 = 0.4

Y = 0.4 * 35

Y = 14

Write an equation parallel to the given line through the given line through the given point.

Law Incorporation [45]

The format of a line equation is y = mx + b
When two lines are parallel, their 'm' variables are equal.
Knowing this, the unknown line equation, so far, would look like this:
y = 9x + b
Since we know that the line equation goes through the point (2, 7)
7 = 18 + b
b = -11
y = 9x - 11
