Answer:

The pitch (slope) of the roof is 0.25  or 25\%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope  is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

where

In this problem we have

{y2-y1}=2.5\ m  -----> is the vertical distance (rises)

{x2-x1}=10\ m   -----> is the horizontal distance (run)

substitute the values

m=\frac{2.5}{10}=0.25

convert to percentage form

0.25*100=25\%

Simplify by combining like terms to
-n+4=8n-5
subtract 8n from both sides
-n+4-8n=8n-5-8n
-9n+4=-5
subtract 4 from both sides
-9n+4-4=-5-4
-9n=-9
Divide both sides by -9
-9n/-9=-9/-9

PLS HELP Find the area of the shaded region. PLEASE
anastassius [24]
<h3>Answer:   64 cm^2</h3>

Reason:

The parallelogram has area of A = base*height = 10*7 = 70 cm^2

The white rectangle has area of B = base*height = 3*2 = 6 cm^2

The shaded region has area of A - B = 70 - 6 = 64 cm^2

If you are curious why the rectangle and parallelogram use the same formula to get the area, notice how you can move that triangle on the left toward the right side so that a rectangle can be formed.

Y=x+3<br>y=2x+5<br><br><br>PLZ HELP! I NEED IT SOOOOOOOO BAD!!!<br>​
natita [175]
Because both equations are equal to y, you can set the equations equal to each other.

2x+5= x+3
-x -x
x+5=3
-5 -5
x= -2

Then, you can substitute -2 to any equation to find x.

y= (-2)+3 y= 2(-2)+5
y= 1 y= -4+5
y=1



:
x=-2
y=1
