Remember that the slope intercept formula is:
y = mx + b
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
so convert the equation -x + y = 5 into slope intercept form by adding x to both sides
(-x + x) + y = 5 + x
0 + y = 5 + x
y = 5 + x
To match the slope intercept formula switch the x and 5 around
y = x + 5
If lines are parallel then they have the same slope (m) but they have different b
This means that the slope of the line will be 1 (in front of the x is an invisible 1 which would be m)
This is what we have so far...
y = x + b
Now we must find b
To do that you must plug in the point the line goes through in the x and y of the equation.
(2, -5)
-5 = 1(2) + b
-5 = 2 + b
-7 = b
y = x + (-7)
y = x - 7

Answer:
y - 1/2x + 7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1/2x + 1
6 = 1/2 (5) + b
6 = 5/2 + b
7/2 = b
Answer:
, solution is $14.29
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create an equation for this scenario to try and solve it.
Assuming the cost of the CD is x, it’s sale tax will be 0.05x (as that is 5% of x, 0.05.)
We can write the equation in two ways:
or
.
Assuming we take the second one (easier to work with), we can divide both sides by 1.05. The equation simplifies to x = 14.289... which rounds to x = 14.29.
Therefore, the equation is
and the solution is $14.29.

Answer:
In California, we need more rain to sustain the health of our natural environment, argriculture, and economic. A group of statistics students in Oxnard College recorded the amount of rain during 2016-2017 school year, measuring the intensity by the inches of rain, and the results were:
Inches of Rain 1 2 3 4 5 6
Frequency 2 4 3 3 7 3
The mean (¯xx¯) rain intensity: ____ inches (Please show your answer to 1 decimal place.)
The median rain intensity: __3.8__ inches
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is 3.8
