Answer:

y = 2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope for a parallel line is the same as the slope in the given equation.  Therefore the slope of the new line will be 2    m= 2

use that slope and (2, -1) to find b

-1 = 2(2) + b

-1 = 4 + b

-5 = b

Plug m and b into y = mx + b

y = 2x - 5

Explanation how solve step by step 2/7m-1/7=3/14
Drupady [299]

Answer:

m = 25/28

Step-by-step explanation:

It's best to enclose fractional coefficients inside parentheses to eliminate ambiquity:   2/7m-1/7=3/14 => (2/7(m - (1/7) = (3/14).

The LCD is 14; each of the denominators {7, 14} divides evenly into 14.  Hence our equation becomes

(4)(m - 1/7) = 3

... after multiplying every term by 14.

Let's multiply each side by 7 to eliminate the remaining fraction:

4(7m - 1) = 21, or

28m - 4 = 21, or

28m = 25.

Hence, m = 25/28.

What is the measure of the third angle?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The total amount of degrees in a triangle is 180. All three angles should add up to 180˚

We know that 40+60 = 100

The next step is to do 180-100 to get the other angle.
180-100 = 80

So the measure of the third angle is 80˚

Hope this helps!

(Also if you want to do this in one equation, you would do 40+60+x = 180
40+60+x = 180
100+x = 180 (combine like terms)
x = 80 (Subtract 100 from both sides)
