F(x)=-1x-1
1) Pick 2 points on the line (i chose (-4,3) and (3,-4)
2) Find slope of the line using the 2 points. (work below)
3) Find y-intercept, which is the point where y-axis and the line cross (y-intercept is -1).
4) Place both slope and y-intercept into slope-intercept form, y=mx+b (m=slope and b=y-intercept.)
5) Change y to f(x) (meaning function of x).
Work:
3-(-4)/-4-3=3+4/-4-3=7/-7=-1
y-intercept equals -1 also.
y=mx+b
y=-1x+(-1)
y=-1x-1

Question:
The image of the question is attached below.
Answer:
x = 40
Solution:
Given ΔVDG ΔVNG.
DG = 207, NQ = 138, GQ = 60, QV = x
In two triangles are similar, then the measures of the corresponding sides are in proportional to each other.
Do cross multiplication, we get
Divide by 207 on both sides of the equation, we get
⇒ x = 40
⇒ QV = 40
Hence the value of x is 40.
