You use y=mx+b, then substitute -3 for the slope (m) and 7 for x and 8 for y, after you substitute all those things - use that equation to solve for the b-term - that will give you the y-intercept. Then you will rewrite the equation of the line as y=-3x+(whatever you just found for b).

It is helpful to first plug this in to point-slope form (note that there are other ways to do this).

Using the form y-y_1 = m(x-x_1), you get y-8=-3(x-7). You can simplify this to get y = -3x+29.

In a coordinate plane, triangle ABC has vertices A(- 4, 5), B(- 4, - 4) , and C(3,-4), . Find the perimeter of triangle ABC to t
4vir4ik [10]

Answer: perimeter of triangle ABC to the nearest tenth = 27.4

Step-by-step explanation: Given that

vertices are

A(- 4, 5), B(- 4, - 4) , and C(3,-4)

Length AB = root( [-4-5]^2 + [-4+4]^2)

Length AB = sqr(9^2) = 9

Length AC = root( [-4-5]^2 + [3+4]^2)

Length AC = sqr( 9^2 + 7^2)

Length AC = sqr(130) = 11.4

Length BC = root( [-4+4]^2 + [3+4]^2)

Length BC = sqr( 7^2) = 7

Perimeter = 9 + 11.4 + 7 = 27.4

Please help me if you are good at math!

Answers:
1, 6, 36, 216: Geometric
12, 4, -4, -12: Arithmetic
1, 2, 8, 64: Neither
-216, -72, -24, -8: Geometric

Explanations:
Arithmetic Sequence: Every number in the sequence is either added or subtracted by the same number. We know that 12, 4, -4, -12 is arithmetic because each number in the sequence is subtracted by 8.

Geometric Sequence: Every number in the sequence is either multiplied or divided by the same number. We know that 1, 6, 36, 216 is geometric because each number in the sequence is multiplied by 6. We also know that -216, -72, -24, -8 is geometric because each number in the sequence is being divided by 3.

Neither: 1, 2, 8, 64 is neither because it is not being added, subtracted, multiplied, or divided by the same number.

I hope this helped!
