Lets say we have 7 items, and we add 7 more.
Then, in the next situation, we have 7 items and we add 8 more. Now we know that 8 = 7 + 1, so we are actually performing 7 + 7 +1. Our diagram already shows us the value of 7 + 7 so we just add 1.
The items can be represented by circles, triangles etc

Answer: A) Parallel </h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
I've highlighted lines m and k in red (see diagram below). We'll ignore the other lines. On those red lines, I've added blue points with their coordinate locations.
Line m has point A = (-3, 5) and B = (-1, -3). Let's use the slope formula to find the slope through these points
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-3-5)/(-1-(-3))
m = (-3-5)/(-1+3)
m = -8/2
m = -4
The slope of line AB, aka line m, is -4.
-------------
Line k has points C = (1, 5) and D = (3, -3) on it. We'll use the slope formula to get...
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-3-5)/(3-1)
m = -8/2
m = -4
The slope of line CD, aka line k, is -4
---------------
Both lines m and k have the same slope of -4. Therefore, the two lines are parallel. Parallel lines always have the same slope, but different y intercepts. So these lines will never intersect one another.
2(4 + 2x) ≥ 5x + 5
First, we will need to expand our problem. Expanding is basically removing the parentheses. To do this, we will look at the first part of the problem to begin with. 2(4 + 2x). Since parentheses usually mean multiplication, we can start with 2(4). So, 2 × 4 = 8. We'll do the same thing with 2(2), 2 × 2 = 4.

Second, our next step is to subtract 4 from each side. We are trying to get the variable (x) on one side of the problem by itself.

Third, we can now simplify (5x) + 5 - (4). I put parentheses around what we are going to focus on. Subtract 5x - 4 to get 1, which can be put as the variable (x). Now we have, x + 5.

Fourth, let's subtract 5 from each side now. This will set up 8 - 5 which equals 3.

Fifth, we can switch sides now to get the result of this problem.
