Answer:

Gradient: m = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

m = change in y/change in x

m = $\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$

m = $\frac{9-(-3)}{6-(2)}$

m = 12/4

m = 3

8. Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 and passes through the

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Explanation:

part A identification for slope:

$\sf 2x + 5y = 15$

$\sf 5y = -2x + 15$

$\sf y = \frac{-2x + 15}{5}$

$\sf y = -\frac{2 }{5} x+3$

comparing with slope intercept form: y = mx + b

we can find that here the slope is $\bold -\frac{2}{5}$

part B, solving the equation:

if the line is parallel, then the slope will be same.

given coordinates: ( - 10, 1 )

using the equation:

y - y₁ = m( x - x₁ )

$\sf y - 1 = \bold -\frac{2}{5} (x --10)$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -4 + 1$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Extra information:

check the image below. this proves that the line is parallel and passes through point (-10, 1). the blue line is question line and red the answer line.

Can some one please help me to teach this to my daughter

28mi/1 hr = 28 mi/60 min = 1 mi/(60/28) min =

28 mi/hr = 28 mi/60 min since there are 60 min in 1 hr
1 mi/(60/28) min since you divide top and bottom of 28/60 by 28 to get
1 mi/(60/28) min = 1mi/(15/7) min = 1 mi/ 2 1/7 min

I'm sorry but maybe you wrote this wrong. If Wendy has 1 pint of milk and only needs 1 pint of milk, then she has exactly the amount she needs.
