8 mi. 133 yd. 2 ft. - 5mi. 107 yd. 2 ft.
= (8 mi. - 5 mi.) + (133 yd. - 107 yd) + (2 ft. - 2ft.)
= 3 mi. +26 yd.
<h3>= 3 mi. 26 yd.</h3>
A) For the equation

, the slope is

.
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is the y-intercept. This means that if

, the slope is

.
B) Since this equation is in the same form, you just find what m is equal to.
Since

, that's the slope.
For the solution, set

equal to

, so it would be put together like this:
![y=[tex]- \frac{1}{2}x+3=2x-4\\ -\frac{1}{2}=2x-7\\ 1\frac{1}{2}x=-7\\ x=-4.66667](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%5Btex%5D-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7Dx%2B3%3D2x-4%5C%5C%20-%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%3D2x-7%5C%5C%201%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7Dx%3D-7%5C%5C%20x%3D-4.66667)
So your answer is
-4.667.
1)Parallel means they have to have the same slope. Since our equation is y=2/3x+1, a line parallel to that would be(using out points) -5=2/3(-4)+b.
To find the y-intercept, solve for "b".
b=-7/3
Our equation would then be y=2/3x-7/3
2)Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes. our previous equation was y=2/3x+1, so our new equation would be -5=-3/2(-4)+b. Now lets solve for b.
b=-11
So our perpendicular equation would be y=-3/2x-11
