Answer:

The slope of the line that is parallel to the given line is \frac{-7}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slopes and different y-intercepts

The slope of the line who has an equation ax + by = c is m = \frac{-a}{b}

Let us use these rules to solve the question

∵ The equation of a given line is 7x + 4y = -16

→ Compare it with the form of the equation above

∴ a = 7 and b = 4

∵ The slope of the line = \frac{-a}{b}

∴ The slope of the line = \frac{-7}{4}

∵ Parallel lines have the same slope

∴ The slope of the line that is parallel to the given line is \frac{-7}{4}

Shay is putting a square canvas painting in for her new room, and the area of the canvas painting is 196 cm².
Alika [10]

Answer:

The total distance around the canvas painting is 60 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total distance around the canvas painting is 60 cm, we know this because, to find the perimeter of a square you add the length of all 4 sides together. To find the length of 1 side we take the square root of the area which is 196 cm², this equals 14 cm. To find the perimeter we add all 4 sides together, so 14+14+14+14=60 cm.
