You have to find a common denominator for both fractions. I chose the denominator to be 10, so the 1/2 will become 5/10, and 1/5 will become 2/10.
Subtract 5/10 from 2/10. You will get -3/10.
Answer: -3/10
You can check your answer by solving 1/2-3/10=1/5 to see if it is true. (It is:)
By definition, if two lines share the same gradient, they are said to be parallel. So, we know for this equation, it must have a gradient of 1/2.
Now, since the point (-6, 4) passes through the line, we know it must satisfy the equation. Since we have a gradient/slope and a point, we can use the point-gradient form:

, where

represents the points being passed through.



Answer:
= 5n - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a common difference between consecutive terms , that is
9 - 4 = 14 - 9 = 19 - 14 = 5
This indicates the sequence is arithmetic with nth term
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Here a₁ = 4 and d = 5 , then
= 4 + 5(n - 1) = 4 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 1
The hypotenuse would be square root of 41
