Answer:
y=5/3x+7/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Here are the points: (1,4) and (-2, -1)
let's first find the slope, which is with the equation m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) (m is the slope)
label the points:
x1=1
y1=4
x2=-2
y2=-1
now subsitute into the equation
m=(-1-4)/(-2-1)
m=-5/-3
m=5/3
the slope of the line 5/3
Here's the equation so far:
y=5/3x+b (b is a place holder)
we can substitute either one of the points into the equation so far to find b, because the line will pass through both of them>
let's use (1,4) as an example
4=5/3(1)+b
4=5/3+b
subtract 5/3 from both sides
7/3=b
Now, put it all together:
y=5/3x+7/3
Hope this helps!
RT = 8 , RS = 3 AND ST = 5.4
RV = 4 , RU = 1.5 AND UV = 2.7
∴ RT/RV = 8/4 = 2
AND RS/RU = 3/1.5 = 2
AND ST/UV = 5.4/2.7 = 2
∴Δ RTS IS SIMILAR TO ΔRVU
SO, the best statement is:
Each pair of sides corresponds with a common ratio of 2.
