<em>Only y= x - 2 intercepts x-axis at 2 and y-axis at -2. Thus meaning that they intercept oppositely.</em>
<em>Find if both graphs are parallel, that means the equation must be false.</em>
<em />
<em />
<em>Multiply whole equation by 2 to get rid of the fractional 2.</em>
<em />
<em />
<em>Well, that doesn't seem to be parallel. This is called one solution answer. Both graphs intercept at (2,0). There are no linear graphs that intercept at (2,-2) except for y = x-2 so there are no graphs with (2,-2) that are parallel to the equation y = -5x/2+5 </em>
In the given diagram, the traingles USW and UTV are similar triangles and thus the following ratio equality applies to them.
..........(Equation 1)
Checking the diagram given, we see that:
VT=y, WS=22, VU=8, ST=x-2
WU=WV+VU=12+8=20
TU=5
SU=ST+TU=(x-2)+5=x+3
Thus, substituting the required values in (Equation 1) we get:

Now, as can be clearly seen, to find y we will use the first two ratios as:


In a similar manner, to find the value of x we can use the last two ratios:

After cross multiplication we get:

Which can be simplified as:

Thus, 
Therefore, the required answer is:
x=9.5 and y=8.8
Answer:
12(5x-2) = 60x-24
Step-by-step explanation:
The distributive property states that when multiplying a term with a sum multiply into each term within the sum. Here you have a sum. You’ll reverse the distributive property by factoring our a term which could multiply into each. 60x and 24 both have 12 as a factor. This makes the expression 12(5x-2) = 60x-24.

Answer:
Non Arguement passage.
Step-by-step explanation:
The passage given is a non arguement passage , the passage is more of a report especially the introductory part where the author said ''Since the 1950s a malady called whirling disease has invaded U.S. fishing streams, frequently attacking rainbow trout.'' this highlighted phrase is a report gathered or investigated by the author which was gotten as a result of his own personal findings or from history. For an argument passage, the introductory part will have portrayed what the author implied, there will be an indication of the authors stance or favoured opinion which of course will be backed by evidence from his or her findings. as such, there is nothing of such which may serve as a precursor to indicate or informed us if the passage is that of an arguement. Again, the passage is a report and not an argument. as nothing can be inferred from the paragraph to point to us if it is an argument passage.
However, there is a conclusion in the passage and conclusions has arrived by the author must have been from a detailed findings and research, if possible an experimental study before a conclusion can be reached as the last line of the paragraph says ''A parasite deforms young fish, which often chase their tails before dying, hence the name.'' The conclusion is that parasite are known to cause deformation in young fish.
