<span>Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve. This will be a right triangle:
=
Let the slope = the hypotenuse = c
Let one side = a=8
Let the other side =b =15
Plug-in the values and solve for the c-term
Check you answer by plugging the value of "c" back into the orignial equation and solve.

Its just a matter of subbing
-7x - 4y = 6....subbing in (-2,2)...x = -2 and y = 2
-7(-2) - 4(2) = 6
14 - 8 = 6
6 = 6 (correct)
so ur solution is (-2,2)
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
4. x= 18
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve the problem like this:
Since 3 is proportional to 6 and 9 is proportional to x, we set up a proportion.
3/9 = 6/x
We then use cross-multiplication to solve for x.
