substitute x and why for the values in the coordinates

y = -x +b

-3 = --5 +b

-3 = 5+b

subtract 5 from both sides

-8 = b

Answer:

The points when graphed are: (3,0) and (0,-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

I know that these points are a solution to the graph because it has one x value and one y value that stays constant.

For an example, if we used an X and Y table we could see that each variable has one other variable.

This is how it look like when graphed:

What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (-4,

Eduardwww [97]

The slope of the given line is
.. (1 -(-3))/(4 -(-4)) = 4/8 = 1/2
Then the perpendicular line will have slope
.. m = -1/(1/2) = -2

The point-slope form of your line is
.. y -3 = -2(x +4) . . . . . . . . . . if you prefer y -y0 = m(x -x0)
.. y = -2(x +4) +3 . . . . . . . . . . if you prefer y = m(x -x0) +y0 as I do.

yan [13]

Answer: Part A) Length of each square is 5 inches and 4 inches respectively.

Part B) Length of wall is 108 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of red squares = 25 sq. inches

Side of red square is given by

$\text{Area of square}=Side^2\\\\Side=\sqrt{Area}\\\\Side=\sqrt{25}\\\\Side=5\ inches$

Area of blue square = 16 sq. inches

Side of blue square is given by

$\text{Area of square}=Side^2\\\\Side=\sqrt{Area}\\\\Side=\sqrt{16}\\\\Side=4\ inches$

Part A) Length of each square is 5 inches and 4 inches respectively.

Part B) If she has enough room to place 12 of each type of square with no space between them,

Length of wall is given by

$12\times (4+5)\\\\=12\times 9\\\\=108\ inches$
