On Melissa's 6th birthday, she gets a $6000 CD that earns 7% interest, compounded semiannually. If the CD matures on her 13th birthday, how much money will be available?

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

i can answer this if i have the answer choices

-3.5 is the distance.

i've had this question so choose the one in the absolute value sign.
