ohaa [14]3 years ago
8 0
Let the two segments be x and y
x+y=45...1
X/y = 2/3...2
From1, y=45-x
Sub this into 2
x/(45-x)=2/3
3x=90-2X
5x=90
x=18
y=45-18=27

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the Slope

(0, 2) , (1, 1)

Slope is equal to the change in y over the change in x, or rise over run.

     change in y

m =  _________

     change in x

The change in x is equal to the difference in x-coordinates (also called run), and the change in y

is equal to the difference in y-coordinates (also called r ise).

     y2 − y1

m = _____

     x2 − x1

Substitute in the values of x and y into the equation to find the s lope.

      1 − (2)

m = _____

      1 − (0)

Simplify.

Simplify the numerator.

       −1

m = ____

     1 − (0)  

Simplify the denominator.

      −1

m = ___

        1

Divide −1 by 1.

m = −1
