1) 9x + 2 = x + 5 ---> 9x + 2 = 6

subtracted X from one side but not the other

2) 3(x-4) + 5 = 12 ---> 3x + 4 + 5 = 12

didn't distribute correctly: 3(x-4)

multiplied the X by 3 but not the -4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a line with points; (2, 5) (3, 8).

1. Find the slope of the given line

The formula for finding the slope is:

$\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

Substitute in the values;

$x_{1} = 2\\y_{1} = 5\\x_{2} = 3\\y_{2} = 8$

$\frac{8-5}{3-2}$

simplify;

$\frac{3}{1}$

= 3

2. Find the slope of the parallel line;

Remember, when two lines are parallel, they run alongside each other, of infinitely long, but they never touch. Hence two parallel lines have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of a line that is parallel to the given one will also have the same slope as the given one, which is 3.

Hi there!

Since we know that 36 is 1/10 of 360, all we need to do is divide the total area (85) by 10. This gives us 8.5pi ft^2.

Hope this helps!! :)
