Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Mark any two points in line a
(0,7) ; (5,-3)
Find the slope
slope = y2 - y1 /x2-x1
Equation: y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y - 7 = -2(x - 0)
y - 7 = -2x
y = -2x + 7 --------> line a
c) equation of line b
(2,-1); slope = -2 {as b line is parallel to line a}
y - y1 =m(x-x1)
y -(-1) = -2*(x - 2)
y + 1 = -2x - 2*-2
y + 1 = -2x + 2
y = -2x + 2 -1
y = -2x +1 ------> equation of line b

Answer:
(x,y) = (-2, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
We start off by substituting the value of "x".
5x+7y=-17
x=-
We then solve 5
y=-1 *Substitute the value of "y"
x= -
x=-2
This works.
Answer:
b = 55
d = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
Part B:
1. We can see that m∠C (25 degrees), the angle with 100 degrees, and ∠B are adjacent angles that add up to 180 degrees.
- This means that b + 25 + 100 = 180
2. (Solving equation above)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
Step 2: Subtract 125 from both sides.
Therefore, b = 55.
Part D:
1. The exterior angle theorem states that the exterior angle of a triangle is congruent to the sum of the two opposing interior angles.
- This means that 110 = d + 55
2. (Solving)
Step 1: Subtract 55 from both sides.
Therefore, d = 55.
