Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that is parallel to the graph of each equation and passes through the given point. y = 1⁄2 x + 5 through (4,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallel lines have the same slope.

We have:

y = 1/2x + 5.

Therefore, the line has the equation:

y = 1/2x + b

Put the coordinates of the point (4, -5) to the equation:

-5 = (1/2)(4) + b

-5 = 2 + b                subtract 2 from both sides

-5 - 2 = 2 - 2 + b

-7 = b → b = -7

Finally we have:

y = 1/2x - 7

answer: all of the odd numbers were opened

the first person was the one that was opening all of the lockers. since one is odd, this causes all of the odd number lockers to be opened in the end.
