Answer:

y = \frac{1}{5} x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = \frac{1}{5} x + 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{1}{5}

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = \frac{1}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, - 4) into the partial equation

- 4 = 1 + c ⇒ c = - 4 - 1 = - 5

y = \frac{1}{5} x - 5 ← equation of parallel line

Planet ruba has a population of 1 million alien planet Zamba has one hundred thousand million how many more aliens does planet r
Elena-2011 [213]
Let's put it into numbers:

Ruba: 1 000 000

Zamba: 100 000 000 000

Zamba has many more aliens than Ruba!!!

it has 100 000 000 000/1 000 000 =100 000 times more aliens,

in absolute numbers: 100 000 000 000 - 1000 000 =  =99 999 900 000

100 000 000 000
           - 100 000
=99 999 900 000
