Answer: a) y = - 3/2 x + 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where c = y intercept

m represents the slope of the line.

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

y2 = final value of y

y 1 = initial value of y

x2 = final value of x

x1 = initial value of x

The line passes through (3, - 1) and (- 1, 5),

y2 = 5

y1 = -1

x2 = - 1

x1 = 3

Slope,m = (5 - - 1)/(- 1 - 3) = 6/- 4 =

- 3/2

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute x = 3, y = - 1 and m= - 3/2 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 1 = - 3/2 × 3 + c

- 1 = - 9/2 + c

c = - 1 + 9/2

c = 7/2

The equation becomes

y = - 3x/2 + 7/2

The perimeter of the triangular park on the right is 16x-6. What is the missing length? The bottom side length is 5x+4 and the r
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

(9x-5)\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

we know that

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the length of their three  sides

so

P=a+b+c

where

a,b,c are the length sides of the triangle

In this problem we have

P=(16x-6)\ units\\a=(2x-5)\ units\\b=(5x+4)\ units

substitute and solve for the missing length

(16x-6)=(2x-5)+(5x+4)+c\\c=(16x-6)-(2x-5)-(5x+4)\\c=(9x-5)\ units
