Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, that means their slopes are equal.

And we also know that the line must pass through (-6,7)

And with our point-slope equation, we get the equation:

y-7 = -\frac{5}{2} (x+6)

y - 7 = -\frac{5}{2} x-15\\y= -\frac{5}{2} x-8<------ Answer

Hope that helps!

Answer:

y=-\frac{5}{2}x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope therefore...

y=-\frac{5}{2}x+b

Then, substitute the given points into the equation to solve for b (y-intercept):

7=-\frac{5}{2}(-6)+b\\7=\frac{30}{2}+b\\7=15+b\\\text{Subtract 15 from both sides}\\b=-8

Therefore the equation is:

y=-\frac{5}{2}x-8

If 50% of a number is 150 and 30% of the same number is 90, find 80% of that number.
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

240

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 50% of the number is 150 so we can assume the number is 300(if its 50% just double that number). Next we use the equation 0.80 x 300 which gives us the answer 240.

Hope I helped
