Answer:

The slope is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To find the slope, you divide the differences of the y-coordinates of 2 points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of those same 2 points.

2) y1 - y2 ÷ x1 - x2

3) 6 -10 ÷ (-1) - 5

4) (-4) ÷ (-6)

5) -4/-6  You can reduce this by dividing by two

6) -2/-3 The negatives cancel each other out, making it a positive slope

7) ∴ the slope is 2/3

which of the following is an equation of a line parallel to the equation <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Any equation of a line having a slope of 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears that the question gives answer choices and this problem could have many solutions, but parallel lines have equal slopes. The slope of this line is 1/2 since it is in y=mx+b form where m is the slope. So a few examples of equations of lines parallel to the given equation would be y = 1/2x - 5 or y = 1/2x + 10 etc.

Can someone please help me with this question?!?
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

(3, 10, 17, 24....)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =  7x - 4

x = 1:

f(1) = 7*1 - 4 = 7 - 4 = 3

x = 2:

f(2) = 7*2 - 4 = 14 - 4 = 10

x = 3

f(3) = 7*3 - 4 = 21 - 4 = 17

then the sequence is:

(3, 10, 17, 24.....)
