Slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (10 - 7)/(2 --1)
m = 3/3
m = 1

To find the equation
y = mx + b
m is slope
y = 1x + b
plug in one of the equations to solve for b
10 = 1(2) + b
10 = 2 + b
subtract 2 from both sides
8 = b

The equation is 
y = 1x + 8
or you can write it as
y = x + 8

Hope this helps

Nick was surveying his field and saw some cows and ducks. Nick counted a total of 80 heads and
Natali [406]

Answers:

  • Total equation:  x+y = 80
  • Legs equation:  2x+4y = 248
  • How many ducks? 36
  • How many cows? 44

====================================================

Further explanation:

  • x = number of ducks
  • y = number of cows

x+y = 80 is the total equation (ie the head count equation) since we assume each animal has 1 head, and there are 80 heads total.

That equation can be solved to y = 80-x after subtracting x from both sides.

The legs equation is 2x+4y = 248 because...

  • 2x = number of legs from all the ducks only
  • 4y = number of legs from all the cows only
  • 2x+4y = total number of legs from both types of animals combined

We're told there are 248 legs overall, so that's how we ended up with 2x+4y = 248

------------

Let's plug y = 80-x into the second equation and solve for x.

2x+4y = 248

2x+4( y ) = 248

2x+4( 80-x ) = 248

2x+320-4x = 248

-2x+320 = 248

-2x = 248-320

-2x = -72

x = -72/(-2)

x = 36

There are 36 ducks

Now use this x value to find y

y = 80-x

y = 80-36

y = 44

There are 44 cows.

------------

Check:

36 ducks + 44 cows = 80 animals total

36*2 + 44*4 = 72 + 176 = 248 legs total

The answers are confirmed.

Determine if the triangles, ΔUVW and ΔBAC, are similar. If so, identify the similarity criterion.
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

B). SAS similarity.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Δ WVU & ΔCAB,

UV/CA = 17/34 = 1/2

&

VW/AB = 14/28 = 1/2

∵ UV/CA = VW/AB = 1/2

& ∠V = ∠A (Given)

∵ ΔWVU ≅  ΔCAB   (by SAS similarity)
