Answer:

y = -2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is found by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (-1-5)/(1--2)

    = -6/(1+2)

    = -6/3

    = -2

Then we can use point slope form to make an equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-5 = -2(x--2)

y-5 = -2(x+2)

Distribute

y-5 = -2x -4

Add 5 to each side

y-5+5 = -2x-4+5

y = -2x+1

This is in point slope form

Figure T is similar to figure W which answer is closest to the length of side XY
beks73 [17]
As they are similar triangles, one is simply going to be bigger than the other, meaning that if triangle T’s side QS is = 9 and triangle W’s corresponding side ZX is =6.5. When dividing 9 by 6.5, it is obvious that triangle W is 0.72 smaller than triangle T. All you then have to do to calculate length of side XY is times side QR on triangle T -cause it’s the corresponding side of these two triangles- by 0.72, and you’ll have your answer of XY= 8.125 :)

Let the number be x


Equation:

12 + 5x = -3


Answer: The equation is 12 + 5x = -3


Solve it:

5x = -3 - 12

5x = -15

x = -15 ÷ 5

x = -3

How do I factor the quadratic equation
anastassius [24]
Factor the following:
10 y^2 - 35 y + 30
Factor 5 out of 10 y^2 - 35 y + 30:
5 (2 y^2 - 7 y + 6)
Factor the quadratic 2 y^2 - 7 y + 6. 
The coefficient of y^2 is 2 and the constant term is 6. 
The product of 2 and 6 is 12. 
The factors of 12 which sum to -7 are -3 and -4. So 2 y^2 - 7 y + 6 = 2 y^2 - 4 y - 3 y + 6 = y (2 y - 3) - 2 (2 y - 3):
5 y (2 y - 3) - 2 (2 y - 3)
Factor 2 y - 3 from y (2 y - 3) - 2 (2 y - 3):
Answer:  5 (2 y - 3) (y - 2)
