<span>Write the equation of the line that satisfies the given conditions, Express the final equation in standard form. Contains the point (2,5) and is parallel to the line x-2y=-5
The given equation can be written 2y=x+5; y = (1/2)x+(5/2)
It's slope is 1/2
So any line parallel to it has slope = 1/2
If the line also passes thru (2,5), 5 = (1/2)2+b; b=4
Therefore the equation you want is y = (1/2)x+4</span>
In the first product the numerator of the fraction is greater than the denominator, therefore the fraction is greater than 1. On the other hand in the second product the numerator of the fraction is smaller than the denominator, therefore the fraction is smaller than one. That means the first product is greater than the second one.
