Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=1/2x-4 and that passes through the point (9,-6)

y = 1/2x - 21/2

Step-by-step explanation:

slope is 1/2

y +6 = 1/2 (x -9)

y + 6 = 1/2x - 9/2

y = 1/2x -9/2 - 12/2

y = 1/2 x - 21/2

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
