Hassan writes an algebraic expression with four terms. The x-term has a coefficient of 2, and the z-term has a coefficient of -1. The expression has a constant term less than zero. Which expression could he have written?
2 x + z + 5 minus 6 z squared
2 x minus z minus 5 + 2 z squared
Negative 2 x minus z minus 5 + 2 z squared
Negative 2 x + z minus 5 + 2 z squared

y=mx+b

step-by-step explanation:

m is slope, b is y-intercept

the discriminant is 64 + 4*1*12 = 112

this is prime.

step-by-step explanation:

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.  

the equation of the parallel line would be y = 2x + 9

step-by-step explanation:

to start we need to find the slope of the original line. we can do that by looking at the coefficient of x, which is 2

since the slope of the original line is 2 and parallel lines have the same slope, we know the new line will also have 2 slope. now we can use that along with the point given in point-slope form to get the find equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 2(x + 2)

y - 5 = 2x + 4

y = 2x + 9
