What is the equation of the line through (-5,-1) & (3,-3)?

Mathematics

Answer:

y = -1/4x - 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do this algebraically then use formula:

M= (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

In other words, M= (-3 - (-1)) / (3 - (-5))

M= (-2) / (8)

M= -1/4 <-- This is your slope

To find y-intercept:

Substitute M in the slope-intercept equation (y=mx+b) with -1/4, y=-1/4x+b

Next, Substitute y and x with either point (-5, -1) or (3,-3)

-1 = -1/4(-5) + b   <-- Solve for B

-1.25    -1 = 1.25 + b   -1.25

-2.25 = b

Now just substitute b and m, and there's your answer:

y = -1/4x - 2.25

Hope this helps!

Quadrilateral ABCD ​ is inscribed in a circle.
Lerok [7]
In general, the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360. This is true for every quadrilateral. This does not help here, because there are two angles (angles B and D) we know nothing about. We only know about opposite angles A and C.

In this case, you can use another theorem.
Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary.

m<A + m<C = 180

3x + 6 + x + 2 = 180

4x + 8 = 180

4x = 172

x = 43

m<A = 3x + 6 = 3(43) + 6 = 135

Answer: 135 deg
