Answer:

the desired line is y = (1/2)x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write these two points as (0, 1) and (-2, 0).

Now, as we go from (-2, 0) to (0, 1), x increases by 2 and y increases by 1.  Thus, the slope, m, of the desired line is m = rise / run = 1 / 2.

Then the desired line is y = (1/2)x + 1 (since b is already given as (0, 1) )

Which equation represents the graph
Sindrei [870]

Answer:

y= 3|x|+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the graph for |x| is shown on the attached picture

Since the picture you show tell us that y=5 when x=0

we have something like the following y=a|x|+5, where 'a' is a constant that represents the slope of the line (whether is the line from one side of the 'y' axis or from the other), we can see that, when x=1, y=8, so we have another point

we can use the equation for slopes using points 1 (0,5) and 2 (1,8)

thus we have that a=\frac{8-5}{1-0}=3

So the answer is y= 3|x|+5

madam [21]

Answer:

  • x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

  • x + 75 + x + 125 = 180 as supplementary (same side interior angles)
  • 2x + 200 = 180
  • 2x = -20
  • x = -10
