To find this I would use the pythagorean theorem which is:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Since we already know c = hypotenuse, and a side of the shorter sides we can plug them it like this:

11^2 + b^2 = 12^2

121 + b^2 = 144

b^2 = 23

√23 = 4.79

Round:

B. 4.8 would be your answer!

Complete the equation describing how
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The relationship between x and y is;

y = -0.5x - 4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = -1, y = -4.

Thus from y = -0.5x + [?], we have;

-4 = -0.5(-1) + [?]

Let's call the question mark m for easy identification.

-4 = 0.5 + m

m = -4 - 0.5

m = - 4.5

At x = 0, y = - 4.5. Thus;

-4.5 = - 0.5(0) + m

m = -4.5

At x = 1, y = -5. Thus;

-5 = - 0.5(1) + m

-5 = - 0.5 + m

-5 + 0.5 = m

m = -4.5

We are seeing the same patter as m = - 4.5

Thus the relationship between x and y is;

y = -0.5x - 4.5
