The slope of the line is -2/3.

This is found by using the equation y2 - y1/x2 - x1. Filling in for each factor, you would have 1-3/1+2 (since subtracting a negative makes it positive). This will give you a final answer of -2/3.

Here is a graph of the full equation of the line.

I hope this helps!

3. Which linear equation corresponds to the line graph?

Answer:

Y=1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

1) there is no y intercept as x=0 when y=0 so that rules out y=x-2

2) next, we will use the formula for slope to find the value of m

Y2-Y1/X2-X1

Where y2=-1

Y1=0

X2=-3

X1=0

-1-0/-3-0=-1/-3

Aka 1/3

So y=1/3x

Hope this helps!

Find the area of each regular polygon. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

tatuchka [14]

*I am assuming that the hexagons in all questions are regular and the triangle in (24) is equilateral*

(21)

Area of a Regular Hexagon: $\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}(side)^{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}*(\frac{20\sqrt{3} }{3} )^{2} =200\sqrt{3}$ square units

(22)

Similar to (21)

Area = $216\sqrt{3}$ square units

(23)

For this case, we will have to consider the relation between the side and inradius of the hexagon. Since, a hexagon is basically a combination of six equilateral triangles, the inradius of the hexagon is basically the altitude of one of the six equilateral triangles. The relation between altitude of an equilateral triangle and its side is given by:

$altitude=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}*side$
