Help with this two column proof

Mathematics

We're given LM = NO which will be used in substitution later.

By the segment addition postulate, we can write 
LN = LM+MN
which basically says "glue LM and MN together to get LN". All three segments fall on the same line.

Now substitute or replace LM with NO. This works because LM = NO is given

So we go from this
LN = LM+MN
to this
LN = NO+MN

Rearrange terms to go from 
LN = NO+MN
to 
LN = MN+NO
The formal property used is the "Commutative Property of Addition"

Now notice on the right hand side we can combine MN and NO to get MO. Again this is using the segment addition postulate. 

So the last step is going from 
LN = MN+NO
to 
LN = MO

Have a look at the attached image to see how to format this proof into a two-column proof.

1) 2x + 3y = 12 -> 3y = -2x +12 -> y = -2/3x + 4
2) 4y - 7x = 16 -> 4y = 7x + 16 -> y = 7/4x + 4

40 POINTS!! AND BRAINLIEST!! The equation of the line is Y=2.x- 1.8. Based on the graph which of the following are true?
nalin [4]

Answer:

The correct statment is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. is not correct:  y = 2.4(30) - 1.8 does not equal 70...

<u>B. Is correct because the slope is 2.4 From the equation</u>

C. is not correct because the points have no 2.4 (maybe 2.2)? difference.

D. is not correct. the correlation isn't positive.

Write an equation of the line below.
katrin [286]
Hello!

The equation would be y= -2/6x + (-3). Since, the y-intercept is -3 and the slope/growth is -2/6 (it's decreasing).

To find the slope just make a growth triangle. We go down twice (then to the right 6 times).
