Answer:

y = 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

y = 0.5x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 0.5

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 0.5x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 1) into the partial equation

- 1 = - 1 + c ⇒ - 1 + 1 = 0

y = 0.5x + 0 , that is

y = 0.5x ← equation of parallel line

What is the value of (6a-2)

DanielleElmas [232]

It totally depends on the value of 'a', and if 'a' changes, then (6a-2) immediately changes too. Whatever 'a' is at the moment, (6a-2) is 2 less than 6 times 'a'.

Solving the given equation, the value of v that makes the statement true is:

A. v = 8.

<h3>What is the given equation?</h3>

The equation is:

$12 = 12 + \frac{v - 8}{2}$

Hence:

$\frac{v - 8}{2} = 0$

Applying cross multiplication:

v - 8 = 0

v = 8.

Hence option A is correct.
