Answer:

The equation of a line that is parallel to line a is y=½x + 2, or what is the same -½x+y-2=0

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the following form:

y = m * x + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the Y axis.  The slope is the inclination of the line with respect to the abscissa axis.

In this case you know that the slope of line a is ½.  

Parallel lines are two or more lines in a plane that never intersect. Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope and different y-intercepts.

You have:

  • y+½x=2       →       y= -½x +2
  • -2x+y+2=0       →       y=2x -2
  • 2x-2=y      
  • -½x+y-2=0       →       y=½x + 2

The line that has the same slope as line a is the last one, so <u><em>the equation of a line that is parallel to line a is y=½x + 2, or what is the same -½x+y-2=0</em></u>

Find the density of a 40 gram pyramid with rectangular base 5 x 6 cm and height 8 cm.
e-lub [12.9K]
Density is <u>mass</u>
                volume
With those dimensions, the volume of the pyramid is;
V = lw(h/3)
V = (5)(6)(8/3)
V = 80 cm^3

D = <u>   40 g    </u> = 1 g/cm^3
       80 cm^3

Answer:

A. 14 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Hey there :)</em>

Well let's find the area of each individual rectangles.

Let's start with the side rectangle.

It has dimensions of 5*1 = 5.

5 square units

Now the 3 rectangles left have dimensions of 3*1=3,

3*3 = 9.

5+9=14

14 square units
