The lengths of the sides of a triangle are represented by 3m, 3m and 3m.

1 answer:

3 0

Q1: The perimeter of the triangle is a + b + c and if each side is the same then it's 3a. In this situation we may write it in its simplest form as 9m. Note that 3(3m) is also correct but it's not the simplest form.

Q2: You're correct, the distributive property of 3(3m) can be written as 3 (2m + m).

How do i find an equation for a line with an x-intercept of 4 and a y-intercept of -2

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The equation of a line is y = ax + b, where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Since we have the y-intercept, all we need to do is find the slope. To find the slope, you need 2 coordinates.

The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis, so it is where x is 0. Since the y intercept is -2, that means the first coordinate is (0, -2)

The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x axis, so it is where y is 0. Since the x intercept is 4, that means the second coordinate is (4, 0)

Since we already have the y-intercept, all we do is put the slope in the equation: y = 1/2x - 2.
