Write the equation of the line passing through the point (-2, 2) that is parallel to the line y = 2x + 3
1 answer:
Hi there! :)
A line that is parallel to y = 2x + 3 must have the same slope of 2. Therefore:
We can use the given point as well as the slope-intercept formula y = mx + b to solve.
Plug in the x-coordinate for "x" and y-coordinate of the point into "y":
2 = 2(-2) + b
2 = -4 + b
6 = b
Rewrite the equation:
y = 2x + 6

Answer:
7/10
Step-by-step explanation:
I've attached an image on how you can use the diagram they gave you.
If you color in 7/10s and 7/12s you'll notice that 7/10s is greater.
This is because 1/10 of the whole is greater than 1/12 of the whole.
For 1/10, the whole is being divided into 10, so it equals 0.1.
On the other hand, in 1/12, the whole is being divided by 12, so a part equals 0.083
0.1 is greater than 0.083, so 7 of 0.1 is greater than 7 of 0.083
