Find the general form of an equation of the line through the point a that satifies the given condition a(2,4) parallel to the line 5x-2y=4

0  = 5x - 2y - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Need to find the slope (m) from the parallel line, which has the same slope.

Slope: 5x - 2y = 4   --> 5x - 4 = 2y   -->     --> m =

Point-Slope: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)  --> m = , (x₁, y₁) = (2, 4)

y - 4 = (x - 2)

 y - 4 = - 5

-y  +4       -y + 4  

     0  =   - y - 1

  2(0  =   - y - 1)

     0  = 5x - 2y - 2

3. (5x + 1) - (-10x + 6)

simplify the answer choice. combine like terms. remember to distribute the negative to the terms inside the second parenthesis. also remember that two negatives = one positive, and one of each sign = negative.

- (-10x + 6) = + 10x - 6

simplify. combine like terms:

5x + 1 + 10x - 6

5x + 10x + 1 - 6

15x - 5

∴ it is your answer

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
