Add 13 to both sides
13 = 2x + 15x
Simplify right side
13 = 17x
Divide through by 17
13/17 = x
Y =Mx + C
where M = gradient / slope
C = y intercept
comparing with y = 2x - 3
M = 2
C = -3

Answer:
A. 53.5cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the circle is ...
A = πr²
A = 3.14(5 cm)² = 78.5 cm²
The area of the triangle is ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(10 cm)(5 cm) = 25 cm²
The shaded area is the difference between the circle area and the triangle area:
shaded = 78.5 cm² -25 cm² = 53.5 cm²
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
As with many multiple-choice questions, you can simply pick the answer that is not outlandish. The circle will fit into a square that is 10 cm on a side, so its total area is less than 100 cm² (eliminates choice B).
The shaded area is definitely more than 1/4 of that 100 cm² square, so choices C and D are eliminated, too. The only choice that is not unreasonable is choice A.
Your answer will be H 170
