4 0

Answer:

1) 11

2) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The bars on the sides of the numbers represent the absolute value/magnitude of the number, so you will need to remove the negative symbol if it is present in front of the number (if it is already a positive number, leave it as it is).

Example:

$|-3+2| = |-1|$

$= 1$

Hope this helps :)

The equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (-2,2) is:

$y = \frac{x}{5} + \frac{12}{5}$

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

When two lines are parallel, they have the same slope. In this problem, the given line passes through (-5,-4) and (0,-3), hence the slope is:

m = (-3 - (-4))/(0 - (-5)) = 1/5.

Hence the equation is:

$y = \frac{x}{5} + b$
