Slope of line a is ½. What is the equation of a line that is parallel to line a? Y+½x=2 -2x+y+2=0 2x-2=y -½x+y-2=0

The equation of a line that is parallel to line a is y=½x + 2, or what is the same -½x+y-2=0

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the following form:

y = m * x + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the Y axis.  The slope is the inclination of the line with respect to the abscissa axis.

In this case you know that the slope of line a is ½.  

Parallel lines are two or more lines in a plane that never intersect. Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope and different y-intercepts.

You have:

The line that has the same slope as line a is the last one, so the equation of a line that is parallel to line a is y=½x + 2, or what is the same -½x+y-2=0

a) 0.25x times 3. (could be wrong on equation.)

b) 2.25 pound of dark chocolate. (can i eat all the chocolate? plz? anyway, again, could be wrong, but i hope im right. all the chocolate together should be 5.25 pounds)

have a good day!
