Answer:

The equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 4) is x=-5

Option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 4)

We need a line parallel to x=-2 or x+2=0 it should be of form x+k=0

We need to find k, by putting value of x=-5 as given in question the point(-5,4)

-5+k=0

k=5

So, the equation of line will be found by putting k=5:

x+k=0

x+5=0

x=-5

So, the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 4) is x=-5

Option A is correct.

just olya [345]

Battery is down currently = 2/5

Battery drains at the rate of 1/9 every hour.

Remaining battery life of Vera = 1 -2/5 = 3/5

Let y we the number of hours battery will last.

So, 1/9 y = 3/5

y = 27/5

y = 5 + 2/5 hours

y = 5 hrs and 24 mins

So battery will last another 5 hrs and 24 mins.

hope this helps:)

Please help with 7a and 7b. The picture above is irrelevant to the problem. If possible explain or show your work. Thank you!!!!

If the ratio is 4:3 divide the larger can by 4 which in a) is 25 then multiply by 3 to get surface area of smaller can which would be 75 square inches.

In part b) do the same so 150 divided by 4 is 37.5 multiplied by 3 is 112.5 cubic inches.

It doesn't matter if it is surface area or volume you still use the same ratio of 4:3
