Which statement is true?
1 answer:
The correct statement is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
For backyard
Length = 5x-2
Width = 2x+4
For house
Length = 5x-2
Width = 4x-12
For driveway
Length = x+10
Width = 4x-12
To find the correct statement.
Formula
The area of a rectangle = Length × Width
So,
The area of the house and the driveway = (5x-2)(4x-12) + (x+10)(4x-12)
= (4x-12)(5x-2+x+10)
= (4x-12)(6x+8)
=
=
So, the correct statement is D

Answer:
y = -4x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b ( slope-intercept)
1. Find Slope:
Lets name 2 as y2 and 10 as y1. And 0 as x2 and 2 as x1.
=
= -4
m/slope = -4
2. Find y-intercept:
2 = -4(0) + b
= 2 = b
Y-intercept/b = 2
3. Put into slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
= y = -4x + 2
Hope that helps! :D
