Parallel lines have the same slope.
So I plug in the -5 and -4
-4 = 1/2(-5) + b
-4 = -2.5 + b
b = -1.5
So I get y = 1/2x - 3/2
Answer:
Yes, the point makes the inequality true
Step-by-step explanation:
y < 10x+8
Substitute x =9 and y=8 into the inequality
8 < 10*9+8
8<90+8
8<98
This is true so the point makes the inequality true

Answer:</u></h3>
Hence, the value of z is:
20
<h3><u>
Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>
The point C is the mid point of the line segment VW.
That is it divides the line segment VW into two equal segments.
i.e. Length of segment VC= Length of line segment CW.
Also we are given that:
Length VW=61
Length VC=z+13
and Length CW=z+8
This means that:
VC+CW=VW
i.e. z+13+z+8=61
⇒ 2z+21=61
⇒ 2z=61-21
⇒ 2z=40
⇒ z=20
Hence the value of z is:
20
