Our line equation is

where the slope m=1/2 and the y-intercept b is b=7.
Parallel lines has the same slope. Hence, their slope is always

in this case.
Bed mass. 12(9)-24/12, 12(9)-2, 108-2 = 106
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5x - 1 = 9
Add 1 to both sides
2/5x = 10
Multiply by 5 on both sides
2x = 50
Divide by 2 on both sides
x = 25
Check the answer:
Plug in 25 for x
2/5(25) - 1 = 9
10 - 1 = 9
9 = 9
The answer is correct.
