Vertex form: y = a(x - h)² + k
h = 2
k = -1
y = 0
x = 5
0 = a(5 - 2)² - 1
0 = 9a - 1
a = 1/9
A pair of lowercase letters represents a recessive gene.
For further clarification, if needed... If the punnett square was for dark hair being dominant over blonde hair, the offspring that was represented by two lowercase letters in a punnett square would have a phenotype of blonde hair.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
L₁ is y = 5x + 1 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
L₂ is 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 ( subtract - 10x + 3 from both sides )
2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = 5x -
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Since L₁ and L₂ have equal slopes then they are parallel lines
