Answer:

y = (-5/2)x + 27

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point slope formula y = mx + b.

Replace m with -5/2, x with -8 and y with 7:

7 = (-5/2)(8) + b. Find the y-intercept, b:

7 = -20 = b, or b = 27

The equation of this line is y = (-5/2)x + 27.

Grace [21]

Answer:

Area of the fabric = 175 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a trapezoid = (b1 + b2)/2 * h

Where,

b1 = 16 inches

b2 = 9 inches

h = 14 inches

Area of a trapezoid = (b1 + b2)/2 * h

= (16 + 9)/2 * 14

= 25/2 * 14

= 12.5 * 14

= 175 square inches

Area of the fabric = 175 square inches
