Answer:

Unfortunately I can't read your answer options properly. The copied text is just too messed up. But hopefully the step-by-step calculation will help you.

Lemme know if it worked for you and if you have further questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 2y = -6

can be rewritten as

2y = 3x + 6

or simpler

y = 1.5x + 3

we know that it's parallel to this line, but we don't know how much lower or higher the new line will be, so let's set "+3" as an unknown variable.

y = 1.5x + b

(the letter b is now what we try to solve for)

now let's plug in the x-/y-Informations of the given point

2 = 1.5 * 4 + b

2 = 6 + b

-4 = b

so the new line is

y = 1.5x -4

(the given point lies on that line and it's parallel to the other line)

let's multiply everything by two to get closer to the original format

2y = 3x -8

it could also be expressed as

2y = -(-3x+8)

(in hope that this may help for choosing an answer option)

please clean up the text of questions before posting next time

(would really appreciate the brainliest)

Two angles are complementary. The first angle is 2x degrees. The second angle is (3x +5) degrees. Determine the measure of each
bixtya [17]

Answer:

70 and 110

Step-by-step explanation:

First angle -- 2x

Second angle -- 3x + 5

Therefore,

2x + 3x + 5 = 180

5x = 175

x = 35

Therefore, 2x -- 70

3x + 5 -------------110

Thenks and mark me brainliest :)

Identify the type of triangle that can be drawn using the measures of sides 13.5 cm, 5 cm, and 9.5 cm.
KIM [24]

Answer: Scalene triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

A Scalene triangle has all of its three lengths to be different. The traingle above can not be an equilateral triangle too because all the sides aren't equal.

Also, it's not an isosceles triangle since two of its sides are not thesame. It's not a right angle triangle as the square of the hypothenuse isn't equal to the addition of the square of the other two sides.

L.B Jhonson middle school held a track and field event during the school year. The chess club sold various drink and snack items
forsale [732]

Answer:

$5.50

Step-by-step explanation:

you start by taking 2673 and then you have to divide that 486 and when you do that you get 5.5. Since that question states that each club sold each item for the same price then each item was sold for five dollars and fifty cents.
