Answer:

y = -1/2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's parallel, that means that the slope is the opposite of the one in the given equation, meaning that 2 would be flipped and turned negative into -1/2.

Then, fill in the x and y values to get the y-intercept.

1 = -1/2(-6) + b

1 = 3 + b

-2 = b

So your answer is y = -1/2x - 2

Which fraction has the same value as 0.6

Zinaida [17]

Using the place value chart we can see that the decimal 0.6 is six tenths, so we can write 0.6 as the fraction $\frac{6}{10}$ . Notice however that $\frac{6}{10}$ is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 6 and 10 which is 2.
