x = 4 and x = - 9
In both cases the angles inside the parallel lines are same sided interior angles
24x - 1 + 20x + 5 = 180
44x + 4 = 180 (subtract 4 from both sides )
44x = 176 ( divide both sides by 44 )
x = = 4
Similarly
x + 109 + x + 89 = 180
2x + 198 = 180 ( subtract 198 from both sides )
2x = - 18
x = = - 9
ANSWER: y= 3x - 6
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
(1,-3) and (3,3)
X1=1 X2=3
Y1= - 3 Y2=3
1) Find the slope of the line.
To find the slope of the line passing through these two points we need to use the slope formula:
m =
m= m=
= 3
2)Use the slope to find the y-intercept.
Now that we know the slope of the line is 3 we can plug the slope into the equation and we get:
y= 3x+b
Next choose one of the two point to plug in for the values of x and y. It does not matter which one of the two points you choose because you should get the same answer in either case. I generally just choose the first point listed so I don’t have to worry about which one I should choose.
y= 3x+b point (1,-3)
-3= 3(1) + b
-3-3=b
-6=b
3)Write the answer.
Using the slope of 3 and the y-intercept of -6 the answer is:
y = 3x - 6
