2x=3x-5
isolate the x so:
2x-3x=3x-3x-5
-x=-5
x=5

we know 2x=3x-5 because of they share an side have the same angles and have a leg of the same value.

Multi-step K is the midpoint of JL, JL=4x-2, and JK=7. Find x, KL, and JL
ddd [48]
If K is midpoint of JL then JK = 0.5JL

JL = 4x - 2; JK = 7

The equation:
0.5(4x - 2) = 7
2x - 1 = 7      |add 1 to both sides
2x = 8        |divide both sides by 2
<u>x = 4</u>

<u>JL</u> = 4(4) - 2 = 16 - 2 = <u>14</u>

<u>KL</u> = JK =<u> 7</u>

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line described by (−1, −1), parallel to y = −2x − 4
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

y = -2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of line is

y = mx + c

where

m is the slope and c is the y intercept

________________________________________

Given that line

y = −2x − 4

comparing it with y = mx + c

m = -2 and c = -4

Thus, slope of this line is -2

we also know that when two lines are parallel then their slopes are same

thus, slope of required line will be m = -2

___________________________________________

now let the equation of line passing through (-1,-1) be

y = mx + c

we have found m to be -2

using this in above equation we have

y = -2x + c

since (-1,-1) passes through the above line using x = -1 and y = -1

we have

-1 = -2*-1 + c

-1 = 2 + c

c = -1 - 2 = -3

using c = -3 in y = -2x + c

we have

equation of line as

y = -2x - 3 in slope intercept form.
