  D.  2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the x-coefficient when the equation is solved for y.

  2x -5y = 9 . . . . . . . given

  -5y = -2x +9 . . . . . .subtract 2x

  y = (-2/-5)x +9/(-5) . . . . divide by -5

  y = 2/5x -9/5

The coefficient of x is 2/5. That is the slope of the line.

The slope is 2/5.

s

step-by-step explanation:

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.
