The line having the equation, y = -2x + 5, has a slope = -2, and y-intercept = (0, 5). Thus, <u>option A</u> is the best choice.

The slope of a line is the tangent of the angle that the line makes with the positive side of the x-axis.

The y-intercept of a line is the point at which the line intersects the y-axis.

The standard form of a line is <u>y = mx + b</u>, where m represents the slope of the line, and b represents its y-intercept.

In the question, we are asked to identify the slope and the y-intercept of the line whose equation is y = -2x + 5.

Comparing the given equation of the line, y = -2x + 5, with the standard equation of a line, y = mx + b, we can say that,

m = -2, and b = 5.

Representing b as an ordered pair, we get (0, 5), as b represents the y-intercept which is a point on the y-axis, where the x-coordinate is always equal to zero.

Thus, we get the slope = -2, and the y-intercept = (0, 5).

The option representing the answer is <u>option A</u>.

Answer:

  2160°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of interior angles of a convex n-gon is ...

  angle sum = 180(n -2)°

When n=14, the angle sum is ...

  angle sum = 180(14 -2)° = 2160°

The trapezoids are similar. Both the left and right sides of the trapezoids are not parallel. Find the values of x, a, b, r° and
Artemon [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figures are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{12}{x} = \frac{9}{6} ( cross- multiply )

9x = 72 ⇒ x = 8

Also

\frac{a}{5} = \frac{9}{6} ( cross- multiply )

6a = 45 ⇒ a = 7.5

And

\frac{b}{7} = \frac{9}{6} ( cross- multiply )

6b = 63 ⇒ b = 10.5

Corresponding angles in the 2 figures are congruent, thus

∠s = 83°

Each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side, hence

∠r = 180° - 30° = 150°
