Well,

Take a triangle.  It has three vertices and three sides.  The three vertices dictate that there will be three sides.  The same rule applies for a quadrilateral (four vertices and sides), a pentagon (five vertices and sides), etc.  So the number of vertices in a polygon is equal to the number of sides in the same polygon.

Taking this a step further, since the number of vertices are equal to the number of sides, we can conclude that a polygon with three vertices is a triangle, a polygon with four vertices is a quadrilateral, a polygon with five vertices is a pentagon, etc.

A line passes through the point (-3,-3) and has a slope of 1/2 what is the equation of the line ?
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

y = 1/2x -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is typically written as y = mx + b.

m is the slope of the line, while b is the y-intercept. y is the y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate.

Since it indicated that the line has a slope of 1/2, we can substitute the m in the equation with 1/2.

y = 1/2x + b

In order to find the intercept of the line, we use the equation of a line to substitute the y-coordinate and x-coordinate of (-3,-3) to discover the y-intercept of b.

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

One half of -3 is -1.5.

-3 = -1.5 + b

Add -1.5 to both sides of the equation.

-3 = -1.5 + b

+1.5  +1.5

-1.5 = b

Since we found the y-intercept, we can now place it into our equation.

y = 1/2x -1.5 and that's the answer!
