For finding the value of b, we must consider that Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). With this condition y = mx + b, can be written 3=4m+ b (because line passes through M(4,3) ) and 12=7m+b, b ( because line passes through M(7,12)). We have a system of equation 4m+ b=3 7m+b=12 For solving this, 4m+b- (7m+b)= 3-12, it is equivalent to -3m= -9 and then m=3, if m=3 so 4x3 +b =3 implies b= 3 -12= -9, so the value of b= -9 <span>

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, find the value of x and y.
tester [92]

Answer:

x = 9

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC ~ ΔPQR

Therefore, corresponding sides of these similar triangles will be in the proportional.

\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BC}{QR}= \frac{AC}{PR}

\frac{6}{x}= \frac{4}{y}= \frac{8}{12}

\frac{6}{x}= \frac{8}{12}

x = \frac{12\times 6}{8}

x = 9

Similarly, \frac{4}{y}= \frac{8}{12}

y = \frac{12\times 4}{8}

y = 6

What is the equation of the following line written in general form (4,5) (1,2)
a_sh-v [17]
The answer is y= 1 + 1x

because the slope is 1 shown by this table:
1,2
2,3
3,4
4,5

and if the slope is one then 2-1 is 1 and the y intercept is 0,1.
