Answer:

y = - 3x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 3, thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 1, 4) into the partial equation

4 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 3 = 1

y = - 3x + 1 ← equation of line

How do you solve this

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

domain: all terms are defined for all real numbers
solution: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation as a single exponential. After taking the log, the solution becomes obvious.

$5^{x-2}-7^{x-3}=7^{x-5}+11\cdot 5^{x-4}\\\\5^{x-2}-11\cdot 5^{x-4}=7^{x-3}+7^{x-5}\\\\5^{x-2}(1-11\cdot 5^{-2})=7^{x-3}(1+7^{-2})\\\\5^{x-2}\dfrac{14}{25}=7^{x-3}\dfrac{50}{49}\\\\1=\dfrac{2\cdot 7^{x-3}5^4}{2\cdot 5^{x-2}7^3}=\left(\dfrac{7}{5}\right)^{x-6}\\\\0=(x-6)\log(1.4)\\\\x=6$

What is the area of the composite figure? ___ units^2

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

34 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure can be considered to be a trapezoid with a rectangle removed.

The area of the trapezoid is ...

A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

A = (1/2)(10 +6)(5) = 40

The area of the rectangle is ...

A = LW

A = (3)(2) = 6

Then the area of the shaded portion of the figure is ...

shaded area = trapezoid area - rectangle area

= 40 - 6 = 34 . . . square units
