Answer:

B. (-2,-4)

Explanation

Given equations:

   y = 3x + 2

   y = -2x - 8

Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;

Solution:

   y = 3x + 2    ----- (i)

   y = -2x - 8   ------ (ii)

Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii

    3x + 2 = -2x - 8

Collect like terms and solve;

     3x + 2x = -8 -2

         5x  = -10

            x  = -2

Then put x = -2 into i, to find y

      y = (-2 x 3) + 2

       y = -6 + 2 = -4

So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line with slope −2/3 and y-intercept 2.
Damm [24]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf y = -\frac{2}{3}x + 2 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = m = -2/3

y-intercept = b = 2

<u>Slope-intercept equation/form:</u>

y = mx + b

y = -2/3 x + 2

A rectangle has vertices W(2,3), X(2,6), Y(7,6), and Z(7,3).
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle has 4 sides.

2 of them are lengths and 3 of them are widths.

We can simply use coordinate geometry (without graphing) to find side lengths of the rectangle. We will use Distance Formula.

We can find all the 4 lengths by using Distance Formula from points:

W and X

X and Y

Y and Z

W and Z

Note, that we don't need to find all 4 of them individually, because 2 are lengths (same) and 2 are widths (same). Thus we can find

Distance of WX, which would be same as distance of YZ

also

Distance of XY which would be same as distance of WZ

<em><u>Note:</u></em> Distance Formula is  D=\sqrt{(y_2-y_1)^2+(x_2-x_1)^2}  where D is the distance, x_1, y_1 is the first coordinate points and x_2,y_2 is the second coordinate points

2m - 6 = 8m then 3m =
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

3m = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

You are given

2m - 6 = 8m,

hence,

2m - 8m = 6,

-6m = 6,

m = 6%2F%28-6%29,

m = -1.

Therefore, 3m = -3.
