<span>Solving for the slope using points ( (−4, 15), (0, 5)</span>
M = ( 15 – 5) / ( -4 – 0) = -5 / 2
Solving for b
<span>
Y = mx + b</span>
5 = 0(-5/2) + b
B = 5
So the linear function is
<span>Y = (-5/2) x + 5</span>
The trick to solving this problem is to know and remember that the sum of all the interior angles of a triangle is always 180 degrees.
Thus, (6x+1) + (5x-17) + (9x-24) = 180.
20x = -40, so x = -2 (answer)
Given:
• AD = 3
,
• DC = 27
,
• BD = x + 3
Let's solve for x.
To solve for x, apply the altitude formula:
Where BD is the altitude.
Cross multiply:
Plug in the values and solve for x:
Take the square root of both sides:
Therefore, the value of x is 6 .
ANSWER:
d. 6
4.5 x 6.2 = 27.9
Hope that helps
You can draw the 3 rectangles with these measurements then divide one horizontally one vertically and one slanted from one top corner to one bottom corner
