LMNP is a rectangle. If LN = 9x – 14 and MP = 7x + 4, find the values of x, LN, and MP.

I am thinking of a rectangle that has the two sides parallel to one another. Set the two functions equal to one another, so

9x-14=7x+4

After a bunch of algebra and math magic, 2x=18 => x=9

So if you just insert 9 into both equations, both will end up with a value of 67, so it ends up looking like a right triangle. Don't do that. Instead, to find the rectangle widths, use 9x-4 (+10 added to intercept) instead, while keeping 7x+4, so that the intercepts match.

LN) 9x-4 = 9(9)-4 = 81-4 = 77
MP) 7(9)+4 = 63+4 = 67

*If you are also looking for the diagonals, use Pythagorean Theorem 77^2+67^2=(hypotenuse)^2*

Answer:

Slope: 2

a: 5

b: 6

y-coordinate when x = 0: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, you need to divide the change in the y values between two points on a line by their change in x values. The two complete points given are (6, 10) and (2, 2), so doing this for them would be...

(10-2)/(6-2) = 8/4 = 2, so your slope is 2

To find a, you must use this slope by counting from one of the points. For every one you go to the right, you go up two. So, how many times do you need to go up 2 (slope), from 2 (starting point's y coordinate), to get to 8 (target point's y coordinate)? (8-2)/2 = 6/2 = 3, so 3 times. Add that to 2 (starting point's x coordinate) to get 5, so a is 5.

To find b, you can just use (6, 8). You know you're going to the LEFT one, so you must go DOWN 2. Subtract 2 from 8 to get 6.

For the last question, do the same with (2, 2). You're going LEFT 2, so you're going DOWN 4. Subtract 4 from 2 to get -2.

Let me know if you need a more in-depth explanation on any part of this!
