Answer:
MO = 12
PR = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of a triangle is calculated by adding all side lengths up:
The perimeter of triangle MNO is given as 48
The perimeter of triangle PQR is given as 12
The ratio is 1/4 (simplified ratio of 12/48)
we can write the following equation using this information:
cross multiply fractions
12x = 4x + 8
subtract 4x from both sides
8x = 8
divide both sides by 8
x = 1
Now to find the measure of side lengths in question we replace x with 1
for MO = 12x
12*1 = 12
for PR = x + 2
1 + 2 = 3
Answer:
y = -2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
First we're going to find the gradient (the number in the green box with the question mark).
We use the formula to calculate the gradient.
Let's make (-1, 3) be our (x1, y1), and (2, -3) be our (x2, y2).
Substitute the points into our formula:
gradient =
gradient =
gradient = -2
Next, we're going to find the y-intercept (the number in the grey box)
Now that we have the gradient, our equation looks like this:
y = -2x + c
We use the letter c to represent the y-intercept of a linear graph.
Substitute one of the points given into the x and y in the equation. Let's use (-1, 3).
3 = -2(-1) + c
3 = 2 + c
c = 1
So our equation is y = -2x + 1
