Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation.
(-2,5), y = -4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y-intercept

Note: In parallel lines the slopes are the same

so put in (-2,5) into the values for (x,y) in y=mx+b and -4 in for m.

5=(-4)(-2)+b

5=8+b

-3=b

So then we put that back into the original equation with the slope of -4

y=(-4)x-3

Hope that helps :)

step-by-step explanation:

a rhombus is a parallelogram enjoying his symmetry.

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
