Answer:

y= -5/3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines have the same slope

5x + 3y = 6

3y = -5x + 6

y = -5/3x + 2

the new line will have the slope (-5/3x)

y = (-5/3x) + b

plug in the (x, y) value to find b

-2 = -5/3(6) + b

-2 = -10 + b

b = 8

your equation is: y= -5/3x + 8

Write an algebraic expression for 15 decreased by twice a number

vichka [17]

An algebraic expression is, obviously, an expression with a variable.

"A number" would represent a variable, which, in this case, we'll use y.

So, 15 decreased by twice x.
15 - y x 2 =

I hope this helped :)

How would the factor pairs change if nancy had only 5 posters to arrange?

Romashka [77]

Answer:

Part A) Nancy can arrange the posters in 4 ways

Part B) Nancy can arrange the posters in 2 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

Nancy has 10 movie posters. She wants to hang them on a wall in equals rows.

A) Find all the ways that she can arrange the posters.

B) How would the factor pairs change if Nancy had only 5 posters to arrange?

Part A) Find all the ways that she can arrange the posters.

we know that

The factors of 10 are

1x10 -----> 1 row of 10 posters

2x5 -----> 2 rows of 5 posters

5x2 -----> 5 rows of 2 posters

10x1 -----> 10 rows of 1 poster

therefore

Nancy can arrange the posters in 4 ways

Part B) How would the factor pairs change if Nancy had only 5 posters to arrange?

we know that

if Nancy had only 5 posters to arrange

then

The factors of 5 are

1x5 -----> 1 row of 5 posters

5x1 -----> 5 rows of 1 poster

therefore

Nancy can arrange the posters in 2 ways

Is the triangle with side lengths of 10 in., 24 in., and 26 in. a right triangle? 85 POINTS

monitta

The answer to, Is the Triangle with side lengths of 10 in., 24 in., and 26 in, a right triangle is: Yes. For right triangles, the sum of the squares of the shorter sides is equal to the square of the longer side. Thus, this is a right triangle if 10^2+24^2=26^2. Expanding these squares, we have 100+576=676, which is true. Thus, the triangle is right.
