Answer: $y=-3x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the values $x=-2, y=4$ and $x=1, y=-5$ , the slope is $\frac{-5-4}{1-(-2)}=-3$ .

So, the equation is:

$y-4=-3(x+2)\\\\y-4=-3x-6\\\\y=-3x-2$

The triangles are congruent. Find the length of each hypotenuse.

Zina [86]

If the triangles are congruents:
1) AC must be congruent with FE→AC=FE→y+3=2y+1→
y+3-y-1=2y+1-y-1→
2=y→y=2

2) CB must be congruent with ED→CB=ED→5x+7=6x+2y→
5x+7-5x=6x+2y-5x→7=x+2y→x+2y=7

Replacing y=2 in the equation above:
x+2y=7→x+2(2)=7→x+4=7→x+4-4=7-4→x=3

Then the lenght of each hypotenuse is:
CB=5x+7=5(3)+7=15+7→CB=22
or
ED=6x+2y=6(3)+2(2)=18+4→ED=22

The length of each hypotenuse is 22
