Answer:
2) Add 21 to both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
When solving for , our goal to isolate such that we have set equal to something.
Therefore, we want to start by adding 21 to both sides. This leaves us with and we are one step closer to isolating .
5^2 + 12^2 = c^2
25 + 144 = c^2
169 = c^2
take the square root of both sides
+ - 13 = c

Answer: Choice C) -1/3
The given line has a slope of -1/3 so anything parallel to that given line is also going to have an equal slope (of -1/3)
To find the slope of that line shown, notice how we drop down 1 unit and the move to the right 3 units when we go from the left point to the right point. Alternatively, you can use the slope formula m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to get the same result.
