Answer:

alright so you got 2 points! now this is the slope formula! y2-y1/x2-x1

okay let's label your points! (x1 0,y1 -3) (x2 2,y2 1)

let's follow the formula this makes it so we can solve! 1--3/2-0

I understand you may get a decimal but don't use 2.5 use a fraction because teachers seem to like fractions and general decimals can be hard to use (experience lol) 2.5 is 5/2 so this means your slope is 5/2

this formula works every single time and if you memorize it you can do any other problems with 2 points! please memorize y2-y1/x2-x1

5q greater than or equal to 8q -3/2

kakasveta [241]

5q ≥ 8q - 3/2

Add 3/2 to both sides.

3/2 + 5q ≥ 8q

Subtract 5q from both sides.

3/2 ≥ 3q

Multiply both sides by 2.

3 ≥ 6q

Divide both sides by 6.

0.5 ≥ q.

The value of q is less than or equal to 0.5.

An arithmetic series has seven terms. the first term is 5 and the last term is 53. find the sum of the series!

Kisachek [45]

The easiest way is to use (& to memorize) the sum formula for a AP:

Sum = 1st term added to the last term & multiplied by half the number of terms
S = (a+l)n/2

S = (5 + 53)(7/2) = 203

The equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-2,2) is:

$y = \frac{x}{5} + \frac{12}{5}$

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

When two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. In this problem, the given line passes through (-5,-4) and (0,-3), hence the slope is:

m = (-3 - (-4))/(0 - (-5)) = 1/5.

Hence the equation is:

$y = \frac{x}{5} + b$

When x = -2, y = 2, then:

$y = \frac{x}{5} + b$

$2 = \frac{-2}{5} + b$

$b = \frac{12}{5}$

Hence:

$y = \frac{x}{5} + \frac{12}{5}$
