Answer:
y = -x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
<u>slope (m):</u> Since the line is going downhill, the slope will be negative
slope = rise / run
slope = 1 / 1
slope = 1
m = -1
<u>y - intercept (b):</u> this when x = 0, the line is crossing the vertical line (y-axis)
b = -1
so y = mx + b is
b = -1, m = -1
y = (-1)x + (-1)
If you crossed multiplied than got an equation than x=6 ( if that's what your looking for)
6 because you set them equal and solve
the answer is -1 1/3 because 0-3 1/3+2= -1 1/3
Answer:
664 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular yard has dimensions 36 ft by 55 ft.
The area of the yard is 36 ft × 55 ft = 1980 ft²
The walkway inside the fence is 4 ft wide. The area inside the walkway has dimensions
36 ft - 2 × 4 ft = 28 ft
55 ft - 2 × 4 ft = 47 ft
The area of the rectangle inside the walkway is 28 ft × 47 ft = 1316 ft²
The area of the walkway is the difference between the total area enclosed by the fence and the rectangle inside the walkway.
area of walkway = 1980 ft² - 1316 ft² = 664 ft²
