First find the slope of the given line like this:
If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope, so the equation we are looking for is in the form:
and we have to find b using the given point like this:
Substitute x = -2 and y=4 in the above equation like this and solve for a:
The equation of the line is then the following:
Because it can be described using two undefined terms, point and line.
Answer:
Matt used 65 carpet tiles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Regarding your (1/10 divided by 2/5): I'm going to regard this as
(1/10) divided by (2/5).
First, write
1
---
10
Invert the fraction 2/5 and then multiply 1/10 by 5/2:
1(5)
-------- = 1/4, after reducing 5/10.
10(2)
Thus, <span>−34+(1/10÷2/5) yields -34 + 1/4, or -33 3/4.</span>
