Canasta is a card game where negative numbers represent losing points and positive numbers represent gaining points. How would losing 151515 points be represented?

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement tells us that winning points means that there are positive points and losing points means that there are negative points.

The positive points are represented with "+"

Negative points are represented with "-"

In this case, you ask to lose 15 points, therefore it would be represented like this:

-15 points

b. y = 4x - 2

step-by-step explanation:

to find a parallel equation to an equation, make sure both equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts.

y = 4x + 1

4 = slope

1 = y-intercept

y = 4x - 2

4 = slope

-2 = y-intercept

they both have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so, b. is the correct answer.

and to check your work, you can graph both equations. : )
