For the answer to the question above,
The slope of the line of the line is calculated through the equation,
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Using the first two points in the given,
m = (-7 - 9) / (-12 - 8) = 4/5
The line parallel to this has also a slope of 4/5. Through the point-slope form, the equation of the second line is,
y - -15 = (4/5)(x - -5)
Simplifying gives the answer of,
y = (4/5)x -11
Eliminating the fraction,
5y = 4x - 55
I hope my answer helped you.
The percentage decrease is 35%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Revenue generated in first year = Old value = $1,500,000
Revenue generated in second year = New value = $975,000
Change = New value - Old value
Change = 975000 - 1500000= -$525000
The negative sign indicates the decrease.
Percent decrease = 
Percent decrease = 
The percentage decrease is 35%.

240 is the answer to this problem
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
the absolute value function always returns a positive value , that is
| - a | = | a | = a
given
- 10 - | 5 - 12 | + 3 + | 5 + 12 |
= - 10 - | - 7 | + 3 + | 17 |
= - 10 - 7 + 3 + 17
= 3
