Are the lines parallel? y = x + 4 and y = x-2

A. yes, they have the same slope and a different y-intercept
B. no, they are not parallel​

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that parallel lines have the same slope.

The y-intercept does not matter.

We have the two equations:

[tex]y=x+4[/tex]

And:

[tex]y=x-2[/tex]

The slope is the coefficient in front of the x.

In the first equation, we can rewrite it as:

[tex]y=(1)x+4[/tex]

Therefore, the slope of the first equation is 1.

Similarly, for the second equation, we can rewrite it as:

[tex]y=(1)x-2[/tex]

The slope of the second equation is also 1.

Therefore, since their slopes are equivalent, they are parallel.

Thus, our correct answer is A.

Question 8 of 19
What is an equation that can be used to solve the proportion?
8/15 = x/6

A. 90x = 8
B. 15x = 48
C. 48x = 15
O D. 8x = 90

Answers

8/15 = x/6

Using cross multiplication let us find the value of x .

= 15 × x = 6 × 8

= 15x = 48

= x = 48 ÷ 15 ( transposing ×15 from LHS to RHS changes ×15 to ÷+5 )

= x = 3.2

Therefore , the equation that can be used to solve the proportion :-

B. 15x = 48

Jayvon has 33.6 points in a competition. He loses 5.5 points,
Write and then evaluate an addition expression to determine Jayvon's current points.

Answers

Answer:

33.6+(-5.5)=28.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Since positive times negative is equal to negative, we can multiply -5.5 by an addition symbol, making it an addition problem, and making it the same expression.

To evaluate the expression, we can do 33.6-5.5.

When adding or subtraction decimals, write it stacked like a normal problem, and line up the decimal places, like so.

Jay bought a painting on sale for 45% off the original price, for $27. What was the price of the painting before the sale?

Answers

Answer:

 0.55x = $27

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of the painting = x

x - 45% of x = $27

    x - 0.45x = $27

         0.55x = $27

Divide both sides by 0.55

 0.55x/0.55 = $27/0.55
