9x-2y=5 Let's put the y on one side of the equation. 9x-2y=5 -2y=-9x+5 y=4.5x-2.5 What is the slope?

OpenStudy (pphalke):

isnt it 4.5 ??

OpenStudy (aveline):

Right. If we want to make a parallel line, we will have to make sure it shares the same slope.

OpenStudy (aveline):

We also need to include the points (2, -5) So, let's use y=mx+b -5=(4.5)(2)+b -5=9+b -14=b So, y=4.5x-14

OpenStudy (aveline):

Btw, I like how you named your photo "howdoidothis.png" x3

OpenStudy (pphalke):

haha oh thanks

OpenStudy (pphalke):

its not correctly entered

OpenStudy (pphalke):

gives me this as i entered it @Aveline

OpenStudy (pphalke):

what do i do?

OpenStudy (pphalke):

@Aveline

OpenStudy (aveline):

It says that you need to use integers or fractions. Try replacing 4.5 with 9/2

OpenStudy (pphalke):

so it would be y= 9/2x=14?
