Answer:

y = x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = x - 3 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 1

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line.

To find c substitute (3, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 3 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 3 = - 5

y = x - 5 ← equation of parallel line

What is the domain of the graphed function?

frosja888 [35]

Yo sup??

Let the function be

y=f(x)

Domain refers to the permissible values of x

since its given that 1<x<5

therefore domain of the given function is x∈(1,5)

Hope this helps.

] Complete the explanation of how you know whether the triangles are similar. If possible, find the Indicated length. A P 2.0 1.

disa [49]

1. The two triangles are similar because the two pairs of angles are equal, therefore the third angles of both triangles must also be equal.

We can call this the AAA similarity criterion

2. To find QR, we must use ratios between 2 known similar sides of both triangles,

$\frac{2.0}{1.7}=\frac{1.2}{QR}\text{ , QR=}\frac{1.2\times1.7}{2.0}=\text{ 1.02}$

So, QR =1.02

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x + 68 = 2x + 103

Subtract 2x from each side

5x + 68 = 103

Subtract 68 from each side

5x = 35

divide 5 from 35 and you get X = 7
