I need help please it’s really hard and I don’t understand it

Mathematics

The line segment HI has length 3<em>x</em> - 5, and IJ has length <em>x</em> - 1.

We're told that HJ has length 7<em>x</em> - 27.

The segment HJ is made up by connecting the segments HI and IJ, so the length of HJ is equal to the sum of the lengths of HI and IJ.

This means we have

7<em>x</em> - 27 = (3<em>x</em> - 5) + (<em>x</em> - 1)

Solve for <em>x</em> :

7<em>x</em> - 27 = (3<em>x</em> + <em>x</em>) + (-5 - 1)

7<em>x</em> - 27 = 4<em>x</em> - 6

7<em>x</em> - 4<em>x</em> = 27 - 6

3<em>x</em> = 21

<em>x</em> = 21/3

<em>x</em> = 7

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture there are 6 triangles. Let's call the total amount x. Since 30% = 0.3 we can write 6 = 0.3x so x = 6 / 0.3 = 20. The picture that has 20 triangles is C.

Write the point-slope form of the equation of the line that passes through the points (-3, 5) and (-1, 4). Include your work in
maw [93]
Firstly, we need to understand the formula of point-slope form:
y1 - y2 =m( x1 - x2)

Where x and y is the coordinates and m is the slope respectively.

To find the slope:
\frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}
In this case:
\frac{5 - 4}{ - 3 - ( - 1)}  \\  =  \frac{1}{ - 3 + 1}  \\  =  -  \frac{1}{2}

We can then put the above slope and the point (-1,4) into the formula:

4-y = -1/2(-1-x)
-y = 1/2+1/2x-4
y = -1/2x+7/2

Alternatively:

y-4=-1/2(x-(-1))
y=-1/2x-1/2+4
y = -1/2x+7/2

Therefore the answer is y = -1/2x+7/2.

Hope it helps!
