Undefined and Undefined
Since the equation is x = 4, there is no y-intercept as x will never equal 0.
Additionally, since the equation is x = 4, there is no change in x value and as such the slope can not be determined.
This question is nasty. It sounds like you should be finding area of the figure you see. I'll do that first, although I don't think it's the right answer. (But it might be).
Area Trapezoid = (b1 + b2) * h / 2
b1 = 8
b2 = 12
h = 5
Area Trapezoid = (8 + 12 ) * 5 / 2
Area Trapezoid = 20 * 5/2
Area = 50 square feet.
The problem is that no lumber yard will cut that for you without charging you. The practical answer is 12 * 5 = 60 square feet is what you will have to buy. Then you cut out the triangles for yourself.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
You have 2 points to solve the equation y = mx + b. After finding m, use either of the points to find b.
Formula
y = mx + b
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
Solution
- y2 = 13
- y1 = 5
- x2 = 0
- x1 = 24
m = (13 - 5)/(0 - 24)
m = 8 / - 24
m = - 1/3
y = mx + b
y = -1/3 x + b
Use (0,13) as the point.
13 = -1/3 * 0 + b
13 = b
The y intercept = (0,13)
Just multiply by 8 each time hope this helps :)))
