Answer:

The correct answer is D) y = 1/2x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this equation, start with the slope of the original line. Since it is 1/2, the new line will also have that slope because parallel lines have the same slope. Now we can use this with the given point to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 17 = 1/2(x + 6)

y + 17 = 1/2x + 3

y = 1/2x - 14

$\bf (x-2)^{2\div 3}=49\implies (x-2)^{\frac{2}{3}}=7^2\implies \stackrel{\textit{raising both sides by }\frac{3}{2}}{\left( (x-2)^{\frac{2}{3}} \right)^{\frac{3}{2}}=(7^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}} \\\\\\ (x-2)^{\frac{2}{3}\cdot \frac{3}{2}}=7^3\implies (x-2)^1=7^3\implies x=7^3+2\implies x=345$

A parallelogram should have 2 sets of parallel lines. Let's find the slope of line PQ and RS to test.

PQ:
(4-2)/(1-(-3))
2/4
1/2

RS:
(2-0)/(3-1)
2/2
1

Because 1 does not equal 1/2 (the slopes are different) the lines are not parallel. Thus, the figure is not a parallelogram.
