Option C (Same as Option D)

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Option C and D are the same, so I'll assume you made a mistake when writing this question. However, let's figure out which of the following equations has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3):

A. y = -2x + 6

B. y - 3 = -2(x + 2)

C. y = -2x + 7

<em />

<em>All these equations have a slope of -2.</em>

FROM OPTION A:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3=-2(2)+6 \\ \\ 3=-4+6 \\ \\ 3=2 \ False!

Since 3\neq 2 then the line doesn't pass through the point (2, 3)

FROM OPTION B:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3-3=-2((2)+2) \\ \\ 0=-2(4) \\ \\ 0=-8 \ False!

Since 0\neq -8 then the line doesn't pass through the point (2, 3)

FROM OPTION C:

Recall \ our \ point \ is \ (2,3), \ so: \\ \\ x=2 \\ \\ y=3 \\ \\ Substituting \ into \ the \ equation: \\ \\ 3=-2(2)+7 \\ \\ 3=-4+7 \\ \\ 3=3 \ True!

Since 3\neq 3 then the line passes through the point (2, 3)

<em>Finally, the equation that has a slope of -2 and passes through the point (2,3) is Option C (Same as Option D)</em>

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

Isosceles triangle have 2 equal angles. Therefore the second angle in the triangle will also be 25.

Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180.

180-(25x2) will give you the last angle in one of the triangles.

The other angle is identical so the angle at the top of the other triangle will also be 130.

The sum of angles in a circle is 360.

Therefore, angle x = 360-(130x2)

X= 100
