Emily wants to plant her flowers in a narrow rectangular plot that is 1 foot by 4.5 feet. The flowers she wants to plant need to be spaced at least 8 inches apart. How many plants should she buy for the garden?

the answer is 31.27mph

1. perpendicular

2. parallel

3. perpendicular

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
