2x + x = 24
so x = 24/3 = 8 ft. (smaller length)
2x = 16 ft. (larger length)
-7 - 7( 8x - 7 ) = -19 + 5x
⇔ -56x + 49 = -12 + 5x
⇔ -61x = -61
⇔ x = 1
Answer: C. y = (1/4)x -7

Answer:
-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope we use the formula, slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
We let (3,5) be the first point so, x1 = 3 and y1 = 5
We let (8,2) be the second point so, x2 = 8 and y2 = 2
Now we plug it in the formula,
slope = (2-5)/(8-3) = -3/5
