Answer:
y=1/5x-31/5 (or y=0.2x-6.2 in decimals)
Step-by-step explanation:
x=5y-8 (original equation)
x+8=5y <u>(Addition Property of Equality)</u>
1/5x+8/5=y <u>(Division Property of Equality, </u><u>slope </u><u>of </u><u><em>original equation </em></u><u>is </u><u>1/5</u><u>)</u>
<u />
y-y1=m(x-x1) <u>(point-slope formula)</u>
y-(-5))=1/5(x-(6)) <u>(plug in the slope that was found earlier and the point given in the question)</u>
y+5=1/5(x-6)
y+5=1/5x-6/5 (Distributive Property of Multiplication) Note: 5 = 25/5
<u>y=1/5x-31/5</u> (Subtraction Property of Equality, and there's your answer)
<u>y=0.2x-6.2</u><em> </em>(This is the same answer, but written with decimals)
Answer:
The number is 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find : A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite ?
Solution :
Let the number be 'x'.
It's opposite is '-x'.
A number which decreased by 12 equals 3 times it’s opposite
i.e. 
Solving the equation,
Therefore, the number is 3.

Answer:
a) ∆RLG ~ ∆NCP; SF: 3/2 (smaller to larger)
b) no; different angles
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The triangles will be similar if their angles are congruent. The scale factor will be the ratio of any side to its corresponding side.
The third angle in ∆RLG is 180° -79° -67° = 34°. So, the two angles 34° and 67° in ∆RLG match the corresponding angles in ∆NCP. The triangles are similar by the AA postulate.
Working clockwise around each figure, the sequence of angles from lower left is 34°, 79°, 67°. So, we can write the similarity statement by naming the vertices in the same order: ∆RLG ~ ∆NCP.
The scale factor relating the second triangle to the first is ...
NC/RL = 45/30 = 3/2
__
b) In order for the angles of one triangle to be congruent to the angles of the other triangle, at least one member of a list of two of the angles must match for the two triangles. Neither of the numbers 57°, 85° match either of the numbers 38°, 54°, so we know the two triangles have different angle measures. They cannot be similar.
4 because the triangles equals half and a square equals a full
