A and b are legs
a^2+b^2=c^2
lets say
a>b

so
a=13+3b
c=14+3b

a^2+b^2=c^2
(13+3b)^2+b^2=(14+3b)^2
9b^2+78b+169+b^2=9b^2+84b+196
10b^2+78b+169=9b^2+84b+196
minus 9b^2 both sides
b^2+78b+169=84b+196
minus 84b both sides
b^2-6b+169=196
minus 196 both sides
b^2-6b-27=0
factor
(b+3)(b-9)=0
set to zero
b+3=0
b=-3, false, dimentions cannot be negative

b-9=0
b=9

shorter leg is 9

a=13+3b
a=13+3(9)
a=13+27
a=40

c=14+3b
c=14+27
c=41

side legnths are
9in, 40in, 41in

Plot the line for the equation on thr graph. y-2=-2(x+4)​
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

y-2=-2(x+4)​

y -2 = x(-2) + 4(-2)

y -2 = -2x - 8

y = -2x - 8 + 2

y = -2x - 6

When  x = 0, y = -6. Hence (0,-6) is a point on the line

when y = 0, x = -3. Hence (-3,0) is a point on the line.

Plot these 2 points and connect with a line (see attached)

Answer:

  f(x) = 6x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Differences in x-values (first row) are 1, 1, 1.

Differences in y-values (second row) are 6, 6, 6.

The constant ratio of differences (6/1) tells you the function is linear, and has a slope of m = 6/1 = 6.

Using the first point in the form ...

  y = mx + b

we have ...

  y = 6x + b

  7 = 6·1 + b . . . . (x, y) = (1, 7)

  1 = b . . . . . . subtract 6

Then the equation can be written ...

  y = 6x +1

In functional form, this is ...

  f(x) = 6x +1
