Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Our goal is to get y by itself
We will first add 3x to both sides to get
-5y = 3x - 15
We will then divide both sides by -5 to get y by itself which becomes
y = -3/5x + 3
Answer: 35
Step-by-step explanation: The third side can be between the smallest side (8 units) and the two sides combined (25 + 8 = 32)
The third side can be anywhere from 8 - 32
A line perpendicular to y = -2x + 5 will have an equation in the form of:
y = (1/2)x + b
Since the graph must intersect (-2,9), we plug in this point to solve for b.
9 = (1/2)*(-2) + b
9 = -1 + b
10 = b
So the equation is:
y = (1/2)x + 10
The answer is A.
