what is an equation of the line that is parallel to y equals negative 4x - 5 and passes through the point -2, 6
Bond [772]

y = - 4x - 2

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 4x - 5 is in this form

with slope m = - 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 6 ) into the partial equation

6 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 8 = - 2

y = - 4x - 2 ← equation of parallel line

Gus and Ike carried a total of 84 books to the library. If Gus carried 5 as many books as Ike, how many books did they each carr
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

They each carried 25 books each.

Step-by-step explanation:

You get this by doing

84/5=16.8

then you do

84/2/5= 8.4

8.4+16.8=25.2

but round to whatever 5 or higher bump up below 5 keep the same

so your answer results in 25.

An alligator population in a naturer preserve in the Everglades increased by 60 alligators or five years what is the mean yearly
adelina 88 [10]
I'm not sure what you meant after alligators, if it was or or for, but I think it was for so I'm going with that. If 60 increase every 5 years, it would be 60 over 5 (in fractions). So I would do 60 divided by 5, which would be 12. So that means 12 increase every year. I'm not sure what mean meant either, if you're talking about the mathematical mean, but you can't solve the mean in this problem. The Answer: The yearly change in the alligator population would be 12.

Can someone clearly explain and workout Q19? Much appreciated
Anna007 [38]
The x coefficient is 2
Take half of 2 to get 2/2 = 1
Square 1 to get 1^2 = 1

Add and subtract 1 to the expression. This is the same as adding 0. 

x^2 + 2x + 2
x^2 + 2x + 2 + 0
x^2 + 2x + 2 + (1-1)
(x^2 + 2x + 1) + 2 - 1
(x+1)^2 + 1

Answer: (x+1)^2 + 1
