Answer:

C. y-1=2(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. y-7=2(x-6)-point slope form: y-y1=2(x-x1)-coordinate point: (x1,y1)=(6,7)

Now let's check that the other point works-just sub in the coordinates for the x and y variables.

y-7=2(x-6)\\-1-7=2(2-6)\\-8=2(-4)\\-8=-8

So answer choice A. goes through both points, so no.

B. y=2x-5-slope-intercept form, so just sub in both sets of coordinates separately to see if they each work.

y=2x-5\\7=2(6)-5\\7=12-5\\7=7\\equal

y=2x-5\\-1=2(2)-5\\-1=4-5\\-1=-1\\equal

Both work, so no.

C. y-1=2(x+2)-point slope form that gives us first coordinate set--(-2,1)

Except that the point is actually (2,-1) not (-2,1).  That means that answer choice C is not an equation of the line thaat goes through (6,7) and (2,-1), so yes.

D. Anyway, if we check D--y+1=2(x-2)--coordinate point given: (2,-1), which is correct, so no.

A 85 inch piece of pipe is cut into three pieces, so that the second
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

<h2>1.  14 in</h2><h2>2. 28 in.</h2><h2>3. 43 in</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

   x          2x                        3x + 1

|---------|-------------------|---------------------------|

|<-------------------- 85 in ------------------------>|

85 = x + 2x + 3x + 1

85 - 1 = 6x

x = 84 / 6

x = 14

1st piece                   = 14 in

2nd piece = 2(14)     = 28 in

3rd piece = 3(14) + 1 = 43 in

                   ----------------------------

total                          =  85 in

The area of a rectangle is 56 cm. The length is 2 cm more than x and the width is 5 cm less than twice x. Solve for x. Round to
Black_prince [1.1K]
 Length = x + 2  (because it is 2 cm more than x)
Width = 2x - 5   (5 cm lest than 2x)Area = 54 cm2  this is the formula to find the area Length × Width = Area (x + 2)(2x - 5) = 542x2 - x - 10 = 54   (this is you area)

  Subtract 54 on both sides of equation to make the right side zero. 2x2 - x - 64 = 0  then use the quadratic formula x = (-b ± √(b2 - 4ac)) / 2a where:a = 2b = -1c = -64 Plug in these values into the formula. x = (1 ± √(1 - 4(-128))) / 4 x = (1 ± √(513)) / 4 x = (1 ± 22.65) / 4 x = (1 + 22.65) / 4          and          x = (1 - 22.65) / 4 x = 5.91                          and          x = -5.41  Check the validity of the x values by adding them to the length and width.  If the length or width should be a negative value, then that value of x is not acceptable. Now x = 5.91 Length = 5.91 + 2  (positive value.)Width = 2(5.91) - 5  ( positive value.) x = 5.91    If we look at this -- x = -5.41, Both length and width will be negative values. We reject this value of x.  The answer is x = 5.91
