Slope form is y/x
to find this subtract -5, 7 by -3, 5 to get
-2, 2 and putting it in slope format....2/-2 which would be -1 or just -x (means -1x)
so far we've found out.....y = -x (+b)
b is what we need to find now so... plug in one of the coordinates
7=5+b (5 because --5 is positive 5)
b=2
so FINALLY the equation would be y = -x + 2

This isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length , a, that are longer than the length of the base , b. The perimeter of the
Sholpan [36]
We are give the equation of the perimeter of the triangle as follows:
2a + b = 15.7 
where b represents the base.

Now, if we want to calculate the length of the base, all we have to do is isolate the b in one side of the equation as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2a

We know that a = 6.3 cm, therefore, the length of the base can be calculated as follows:
b = 15.7 - 2(6.3) = 3.1 cm
