The formula is y=mx + b, or rearranged would be m= y/x -b/x.
1: Solve for either x or y in one of the equations. So x + y = -1 is y = -x -1
2: substitute the new equation in the opposite equation. So x - (-x - 1) = 7
3: distribute the negative. X + x + 1 = 7
4: combine like terms. 2x + 1 = 7
5: solve for x. Subtract 1 on both sides. 2x = 6
6: divide by 2 to get x by itself. X = 3
7: plug the new value of x into one of the ORIGINAL equations. 3 + y = -1
8: solve for y. Subtract 3 on both sides.
Y = -4
9: the solution is written as (x,y) so the solution would be (3, -4)
3.) 5x-6=0, Add 6 to either side -> 5x=6, divide each side by 5 -> x=6/5 ---- 4.) x+y/3=5, multiple each side by 3 -> x+y=15, move y to the other side -> x=-y+15
21 because a triangle is always going to equal 180 so add those then subtract and it’s 21
Answer:
Area = 114
Step-by-step explanation:
We first must find the area of the larger outside rectangle.
Area = length × width
15 × 8 = 120
Then we find the area of the smaller inside rectangle.
4 × 1.5 = 6
Since the small rectangle is not shaded we have to subtract its area from the larger shaded rectangle's area.
120 - 6 = 114
