- The answer is A = x since the opposite sides of a rectangle are the same length.
- We'll have B = 9x+2 since this must add to x+4 to result in 10x+6. You could also do (10x+6) - (x+4) and you'll end up with 9x+2.
- On the far left side, (5x-3)+A = 5x-3+x = 6x-3. The far right side must add to this. So, x+C+x-2 = 6x-3 turns into C = 4x-1 after isolating C.
- Multiply out (5x-3) with (9x+2) to get the full area of 45x^2-17x-6. The steps are shown below
(5x-3)(9x+2)
5x(9x+2)-3(9x+2)
45x^2+10x-27x-6
45x^2-17x-6
You could also use the FOIL rule to get this answer. The box method is another alternative.
I’ll assume the c is b. (1/2) x (5) x (2) x (2) is 10
Answer:
y = 3/2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of the line
Step 1: find slope
( 2 , -2) ( 4 , 1)
x_1 = 2
y_1 = -2
x_2 = 4
y_2 = 1
Insert the values into
m = (y_2 - y_1) / (x_2 - x_1)
m = ( 1 - (-2) / (4 - 2)
= ( 1 + 2) / ( 4 -2 )
= 3 / 2
m = 3/2
Step 2: substitute m into the equation
y = mx + c
y = 3/2x + c
Step 3: substitute any of the two points into the equation
Let's pick (4 , 1)
x = 4
y = 1
y = 3/2x + c
1 = 3/2(4) + c
1 = 3*4/2 + c
1 = 12/2 + c
1 = 6 + c
1 - 6 = c
c = 1 - 6
c = -5
Step 4 : substitute c into the equation
y = 3/2x + c
y = 3/2x - 5
The equation of the line is
y = 3/2x - 5
