I believe that the answer is B. 62°
A line parallel to the given one will have the same slope, 0.5. For the purpose here, it is convenient to start with a point-slope form of the equation, then simplify. For slope m and point (h, k), the equation of the line can be written as
... y = m(x -h) +k
We have m=0.5, (h, k) = (-9, 12), so the equation is ...
... y = 0.5(x +9) +12
... y = 0.5x +16.5
The slope should be m= -9/11
Answer: Ian's height = x+14 = 69+14 = 83 cm
Explanation :
Let the height of Jim be x
Let the height of Ian be x+4
Let the height of Lisa be x+4+10=x+14
Since their heights increase by 2cm every months
so after 7 months ,
Jim's height = x+14
Ian's height= x+4+14=x+18
Lisa's height= x+14+14=x+28
According to question,
Sum of Ian's and Jim's height = 170cm
⇒x =
⇒ x= 69cm
∴ Ian's height = x+14 = 69+14 = 83 cm
The greatest common factor is 2
This is because we start by taking the largest factor that goes into both coefficients. Since the first coefficient is 2, we have to try 2 and 1. Since 2 is larger and goes into 36 evenly, we use that.
Then we use the smallest number of each variable. There are 4 r's in both equations. So, that is the number that we take. There are 2 s's in the first term, so we take that number.
