Answer:

y = 0.5x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First consider the slope of this line. If two points that lie on this line are ( 0, 3 ) - ( which is supposedly the y - intercept ), and ( 2, 4 ) take that change in y / change in x to derive the slope;

( 0, 3 ), ( 2, 4 )\\\\\\Slope = 3 - 4 / 0 - 2,\\Slope = - 1 / - 2\\Slope = 1 / 2 \\\\Slope = 0.5

I did mention earlier that the y - intercept was found to be 3. If that is so, taking the equation in point - slope form, we can tell the equation of the line through the following steps;

y = mx + b,\\m = slope, \\b = y - intercept\\\\Equation, y = 0.5x + 3

You can set up two equations from the information given. I will set them up for you:

32 = 4x + 2y
36 = 5x + 2y

Let's solve the first equation to come up with a value for y.

32 = 4x + 2y
32 - 4x = 2y
16 - 2x = y

Now we plug y into the other equation.

36 = 5x + 2(16-2x)
36 = 5x + 32 - 4x
4 = x

Now we have our real x value and we can plug it into the first equation.

32 = 4(4) + 2y
32 = 16 + 2y
16 = 2y
8 = y

Since x = 4 and y = 8, you get the final coordinates of (4,8).

Your answer is the second statement provided above.

Find the measure of the angle and please explain step by step
MrRa [10]

angle 4 is the same as angle 8

 angle 7 & angle 8 has to equal 180 degree

 so angle 7 and angle 4 also have to equal 180

angle 4 is 3 times the size of 7

lets call 7  (x)

so 4(x) = 180

180/4  =45

x=45

angle 7 is 45 degrees
