For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

According to the statement we have the following equation:

y = \frac {1} {3} x + 4

Where:

m = \frac {1} {3}

By definition, if two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

Thus, the second equation will be of the form:

y = \frac {1} {3} x + b

We substitute the given point and find "b":

-5 = \frac {1} {3} (0) + b\\b = -5

Finally, the equation is:

y = \frac {1} {3} x-5

What is the slope of a line with points (5.5,2.2)(11,4.4)?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Slope=2.2/5.5 or 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Hence:

slope=(4.4-2.2)/(11-5.5)

slope=2.2/5.5=0.4

The health care Jimmy’s employer offers is a fee-for-service plan in which Jimmy and his family must pay for $12,500 in health r
Ostrovityanka [42]
The answer is Letter B - $4,280.00.

Total the amount they could incur because of health issues in a year then deduct it from 12,500.

   = 685 x 12 months
   = 8,220; they incur $8,220 for their health related issues in a year

   = 12,500 - 8,220
   = 4,280; amount they need to pay before the insurance company assumes responsibility.
