Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
recall that the point-slope form of a linear equation is given by
y = mx + c
Rearranging so that it is in the same form as the answer choices, we get
y = c + mx
where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept
we note the following observations
1) The line goes from top left to bottom right, this means that the slope is negative, hence m has to be negative. (in our case, all the choices have negative x)
2) The line crosses the y-axis at y = 4, this means the y-intercept is 4 and hence c = 4.
If we look at the choices, only choice B satisfies both observations (that m is negative and c = 4)
Answer:
The area of the path would be 231.25 squared meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the path as 45m (the field's area), then add 2.5m to all of the sides. You'll get 47.5m on all sides. Then you do 47.5² to get 2256.25 squared meters. After that, you'll remove the area of the squared field. To do this, do 45m². By doing this, you'll get 2025 squared meters. Lastly, to finish up the question, do 2256.25 - 2025. This would get you 31.25 squared meters, the answer.
