Answer:
1.5 square miles
Step-by-step explanation:
First divide 1 by 0.5 which is 2. that means you also divide 3 by 2 which is 1.5.
We know that y=MX+c
here m=1 and c=-1
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
The intercepts are the points where the line meets with the x axis and the y axis. First let us find the equation of the line.
Finding slope:
slope=change in y/change in x (y2-y1/x2-x1)
slope=-3-(-8)/-4-(-1)=5/-3=-5/3
Finding y-intercept:
y=mx+b
-8=-5/3(-1)+b
b=-9 2/3
y intercept: (0,-9 2/3)
Equation: y=-5/3x-9 2/3
Since we already have the y intercept let us find the x intercept by plugging 0 in the place of y in the equation.
0=-5/3x-9 2/3
x=29/3x(-3/5)
x=-29/5
x intercept: (-29/5,0)
answers: (0,-9 2/3) and (-29/5,0)
Both of the answers are 32. if you want me to work it out for you i will in the comments
