Write the equation through (2,5) parallel to the line through (8,0) and (0,8)

Mathematics

Answer:

y = -x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

As we move from (8, 0) to (0, 8), we see x decreasing by 8 ('rise') and y increasing by 8 ('run').  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = 8/(-8) = -1.

Starting from y = mx + b and substituting 8 for x, 0 for y and -1 for m, we get:

0 = -1(8) + b, or b = 8

Then the equation of the line through the two given points is y = -x + 8.  Any line parallel to this one has the same slope:  m = -1.

Repeat the above work to find the y-intercept of the line parallel to y = -x + 8  that goes through (2, 5):

5 = -2 + b, or b = 7

Then the desired line (final answer) is y = -x + 7

3. The correct answer is 2) 3m² - 6. 
(2m² + 3m - 4) + (m² - 3m - 2)   Given
2m² + m²   These numbers are like terms, because they both end in m².
3m²   Since m² can also be written as 1m², and 2 + 1 = 3, this is the sum of 2m² and m² (1m²).

3m + (-3m)   These numbers are like terms, because they both end in m. -3m is negative because it was being subtracted.
0   Since we're adding a negative, it's the same as subtracting something. 3m - 3m is 0.

-4 + (-2)   These numbers are like terms, because they are both simple integers with no variable. Once again, we're adding a negative because it was being subtracted.
-6   -4 + (-2) is the same as -4 - 2, which is -6. Remember that when you're subtracting from a negative, the number seems to become larger. For instance, 1 - 1 is 0, but -1 - 1 is -2.

3m² - 6   Put all of the terms together. We don't have to write out 0, because 0 is the same as nothing.

5. This one is a bit unclear, but I think that the correct answer is 2) II and IV. The slope formula can be written as y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, or the place where the line crosses the y-axis. In this equation, b is 2, which is a positive number, so the y-intercept shifts upward. This means that the answer is either 2 or 3. As for |x - 6|, the way this is written makes the equation somewhat confusing. I believe that the bars are meant as absolute value bars, which, put simply, turn negatives into positives. This means that this part is x + 6, so the line shifts to the right. However, if they were intended as parentheses, the line would shift to the left, because we're subtracting 6 from x. I'm almost certain those were intended as absolute value bars, though, so I think that the answer is 2.

Hope this helps!
