The answer is A.5/8.
Why?
Multiply 1/4 with 2/2 to get the same denominator as 7/8, 8. That will yield 2/8.Then, simply subtract 2/8 from 7/8 (7/8 - 2/8), and that equals 5/8.
Hope this helps!
Add 4 to both sides
x < -5
Closed circle at x = 5, line points left

Parallel lines share the same slope, so the slope of the parallel line in this case must be
.
Point-slope form is
, where
is the slope and
is any known point on the line.
Plug in the values. 
Simplify and distribute. 
Subtract 1 from both sides. 
Answer:
if you're simplifying, it should be = -1b - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 4(1-2b) + 7b -10 solve the parenthesis
2. 4 <u>- 8b</u> <u>+ </u><u>7b</u> - 10 combine like(same) terms
3. <u>4</u> - 1b <u>- 10</u> same as 2.
4. -1b - 6
