What is the slope of a line parallel to the line whose equation is 5x+y=-9

slope = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c (m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

5x + y = - 9 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

y = - 5x - 9 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 5

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

The slope of a parallel line to the given equation is m = - 5

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.
