Answer 1

Answer:

a. connect the point (0 , 3) with A

b. connect the origin (0 , 0) with B

c. For A: y = 0.5x +3

For B: y = 0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ax + b is the general rule for any straight line

a being the slope and b being the y intercept, a is given to be 0.5

y = 0.5x + b, substitute the coordinates of point A

4 = 0.5 *2 +b hence b = 4 - 0.5 *2 = 4 - 1 = 3

so y = 0.5 x + 3 is the equation of the line passing through A

since the second line that passes through B is parallel to the first, hence it has the same slope of 0.5

same procedure, substitute coordinates of B

2 = 0.5 * 4 + b hence b = 2 - 0.5 *4 = 2 - 2= 0

so y = 0.5 x is the equation of the line passing through B
