Answer:
Slope intercept: y = -3/2x + 1
Point slope: y + 2 = -3/2 * (x - 2) [Forgot to add the work for this, I will add it if you need it, feel free to ask.]
Step-by-step explanation:
m = (change in y)/change in x)
But also
m = y_2 - y_1/x_2 - x_1
So lets substitute
m = 1 - (-2)/0 - (2)
Lets find the slope
m = 3/0 - (2)
m = 3/-2
m = -3/2 (Moved the negative)
Now we find the value of b using the equation of a line.
y = mx + b
y = (-3/2) * x + b
y = (-3/2) * (2) + b
-2 = (-3/2) * (2) + b
Now we find the value of b
Lets rewrite
-3/2 * 2 + b = -2
Cancel the CF of 2
-3 + b = -2
Move the terms without b to the right
b = -2 + 3
b = 1
Now we substitute our values of the slope and y-int into y = mx + b to find the equation.
y = -3/2x + 1
-3,2 means on quadrant 4 and 1,2 is in quadrant 1
Answer:
Triangle P and Triangle Q are mathematically similar shapes (?).
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, so the question asks which statement is true, given the following information, but you haven't written what statements we can choose from.
After reading the information, we can see that Triangle Q is the same shape as Triangle P but just larger.
I'm assuming that one of the statements given is about Triangle P and Triangle Q being mathematically similar shapes?
If you need to show your working out, here it is:
18 ÷ 6 = 3
24 ÷ 8 = 3
30 ÷ 10 = 3
All the angles are the same.
This means that the length scale factor is +3 from Triangle P to Triangle Q, the area scale factor is +9 (because 3 x 3 = 9) from Triangle P to Triangle Q, and that the two shapes are mathematically similar.
*DISCLAIMER* The majority of question askers on Brainly seem to be from the US, and I'm not, so the way I work things out / the mathematical terms I use might be different. Sorry!
Hope this helped anyway!

So to solve for this, we need to set up proportional fractions, which I will help show you how to do.
First, if we are given an amount out of a total, we need to put it over x (if we are looking for the total). It looks like this:
12/x, 12 being the given number and x being the total.
If we are given the total but are looking for an amount, put the total at the bottom of the fraction (aka the denominator). It looks like this: x/16, 16 being the total amount and x being the amount out of the total.
We have a total of 40 test problems, so we can put our total at the bottom, x/40.
X is the amount of questions answered correctly (we are looking for x in the question).
We have answered 80% correct, so put 80% over 100 (100 being the total). It should look like this: 80/100.
Now we have our two fractions: x/40 & 80/100.
Set these up as an equation.
x/40 = 80/100.
Now this is where things may get tricky if you don't pay attention.
Multiply the numerator (the top number of a fraction) of x/40 by the denominator (the bottom number of a fraction) of 80/100.
Your product equation should look like this:
x times 100. This will give is 100x. Leave it at that.
Now, multiply the denominator of x/40 (the bottom number of the fraction) by the numerator (the top number of a fraction) of 80/100. It should look like this:
80 x 40. This will give us 3200.
Now set up our products as an equation.
100x = 3200.
To solve for x, divide both sides by 100.
3200/100 = 32.
x = 32.
I hope this helps and has taught you something!
