Answer:
y = x/2 - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to find the slope of the given equation: x - 2y = 8
Subtract x from both sides
x - 2y = 8
- x - x
-2y = 8 - x
Divide both sides by -2
-2y/-2 = (8 - x)/-2
y = -4 + x/2
The slope of this equation is 1/2
So the equation of our parallel equation is y = x/2 + b
We have to find b, so plug in the given coordinates
-6 = 2/2 + b
-6 = 1 + b
Subtract 1 from both sides
-6 = 1 + b
- 1 - 1
b = -7
Plug it back into the original equation
y = x/2 - 7
Annual = $68,000
Semiannual = $34,000
Monthly = $5,666.67
Semimonthly or bimonthly = $2,833.33
Weekly = $1,416.67

Answer:
profit = 129.63% (to the nearest hundredth) as a percent of the price the store paid for the book
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the percentage change formula:
percent change = [ (difference between the initial value and the final value) ÷ initial value] x 100
= [ (6.20 - 2.70) ÷ 2.70 ] x 100
= [ 3.5 ÷ 2.70 ] x 100
= 37/27 x 100
= 129.6296296...
= 129.63% (to the nearest hundredth)
Replace x in the equations and see which one gets the matching y :
-5(0) = 0 +1 = 1
-5(1) = -5 + 1 = -4
-5(-1) = 5 +6 = 6
The first equation works.
