Answer:

D. y=-2x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>First start with what we know....</em></u>

y = -2x + 3 (Slope Intercept Form)

<u><em>Because of this we can eliminate B.  </em></u>

<u><em>Parallel means that the lines wouldn't be touching which means they should have the same slope and the only one with the same slope is D. </em></u>

For this case we have that an equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cutoff point with the y axis

They give us the following information:

m = -2\\b = 3

Then the line is:

y = -2x + 3

They ask us to find a parallel line. By definition, if two lines are parallel then they have the same slope. Thus, the line sought is of the form:

y = -2x + b

We look for the cut point "b" substituting the point where the line passes: (2,2)

2 = -2 (2) + b\\2 = -4 + b\\2 + 4 = b\\b = 6

Finally, the line is:

y = -2x + 6\\y + 2x = 6

Answer:

Option A

3:5

This means there are 8 divisions altogether - 8 parts to be split (3+5=8)

64 / 8 = 8

8x3 = 24

8x5 = 40

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:15

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide the fractions so it 3/4÷1/10 then you can do keep change flip so the new equation is 3/4×10/1 or 3/4×10 then cross simply then get 3/2×5/1 to get 15/2 then use division to get 7 1/2
