Answer 3

ok hello

Answer 4

Hi

Answer 5

What is the slope of a line parallel to the line with equation 2x - 5y = 9?

Answer 6

well parallel means that it will have the same slope

Answer 7

A. 2/5
B. -2/5
C. -5/2
D. -9/5

Answer 8

change that given equation into ,, y = mx + b form first

Answer 9

m is the slope right?

Answer 10

2x = 5y + 9

5y = 2x - 9

y = (2/5)x - (9/5)

Answer 11

yeah m is the slope

Answer 12

ok then what do i do?

Answer 13

any line parallel to that given one , will have the same slope

Answer 14

so i graph it then?

Answer 15

so you have
y = mx + b

y = (2/5)x + (9/5)

Answer 16

any parallel line to that one will have a slope of 2/5

Answer 17

oh, so thats the answer?

Answer 18

yea

Answer 19

k, can you help me with 1 more?

Answer 20

sure

Answer 21

ok

Answer 22

Which of the following has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of –4?
(Points : 4)
y = -2x + 4

y = 2x + 4
y = 2x - 4
y = -2x - 4

Answer 23

oops

Answer 24

Which of the following has a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -4?

Answer 25

recall: the form

y = mx + b

m = slope
b = y-intercept

Answer 26

oh ok so it is C.

Answer 27

yep

Answer 28

Awesome thank you

Answer 29

no problem
