Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a very interesting problem. We are given the slope and one point, which makes this funner than normal ;)
Filling in the slope formula with what we are given:
which simplifies to
Since slope is rise over run, the rise number is -3; the run number is 5. That means that the equation to find the y coordinate comes from -3 = y - 2; the equation to find the x coordinate comes from 5 = x + 3 (keep in mind that you could have made the x coordinate the negative one; it doesn't matter. You will get the same answer regardless...promise).
Solving for y:
-3 = y - 2 and
y = -1
Solving for x:
5 = x + 3 and
x = 2
Let's check those coordinates in the slope formula and see if our slope is in fact -3/5:
so we're all good!
The coordinates of B are (2, -1)
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Turn all fractions to improper fractions first.
2 × 2 = ×
Directly multiply. (numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators)
× =
Simplify by turning improper fractions back into mixed numbers.
= 6
Answer:
48 sq inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of the smaller polygon to the larger one is 6:8, which can be simplified to 3:4.
36:48 is equivalent to 3:4 (both sides multiplied by 12)
