What is the equation of a line that passes through the points, (-2, 2) and is parallel to a line with an equation of y = 2x + 5

y = 2x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + 5

This line is in slope intercept form  y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 2.  Parallel lines have the same slope

y = 2x+b

Using the given point and substituting it into the equation

2 = 2(-2) +b

2 =-4+b

Add 4 to each side

2+4 = -4+b+4

6 = b

y = 2x+6

an advantage of the standard deviation is that it increases as the dispersion of the data increases. e. the interquartile range is preferred when the data are not skewed or no have outliers. an advantage of the standard deviation is that it uses all the observations in its computation.
