Lines parallel to each others only occur when two slopes of equations are same. The definition of parallel lines is:

\large \boxed{m_1 =  m_2}

We are given the equation of a line which is x = -2. For x = a, the equation forms a verical line and has an undefined slope. These below are basic that you may need to learn when learning about the line graph:

  • y = a —> horizontal line; slope is 0.
  • x = a —> vertical line; slope is undefined.
  • For y = a, any a-values would have same x-values. For example, if we are given y = 2 then any domains or x-values can have the range of 2.
  • For x = a, any a-values would have same y-values or range.

Back to the question. We want to find the equation of a line that is <u>p</u><u>a</u><u>r</u><u>a</u><u>l</u><u>l</u><u>e</u><u>l</u> to the line x = -2 and <u>p</u><u>a</u><u>s</u><u>s</u><u>e</u><u>s</u><u> </u><u>t</u><u>h</u><u>r</u><u>o</u><u>u</u><u>g</u><u>h</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>5</u><u>,</u><u>4</u><u>)</u> point. Recall the definition of parallel line that both slopes of equations must equal. Since x = a for any a-values would give an undefined slope. That means our parallel would be x = b.

Because the line passes through (5,4) - for any a-values from x = a would give out the set of all real numbers for range. Therefore the equation of a line is x = 5.

Answer

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

Answer: 140

Step-by-step explanation: since 4 = 40 then 2 would also be 40 because they are the same angle (Keep in mind that a line is 180 degrees) 180-40=140! Good luck! :D

Kyle mows4 lawns a day 4 day a week 4 week a month and 4 months a year he makes $25 per lawn how much money did he make last yea
denis-greek [22]

Lets break this down step by step.

4+4+4+4=16 lawns a week.

16+16+16+16=64 lawns a month.

64+64+64+64=256 lawns a year.

Then we take 256 x $25 to get $6,400 last year.
