Mathematics
1 answer:
stepladder [879]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

y = - 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line passing through the origin is

y = mx ← m is the slope

To calculate m use the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 1, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 0) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{0-2}{0+1} = \frac{-2}{1} = - 2

y = - 2x ← equation of line

15. A rectangle has a length of 2x - 1 and a width of 3x + 7. Find the perimeter of this rectangle.
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

10x + 12 and 6x² + 11x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w ( l is length and w is width )

   = 2(2x - 1) + 2(3x + 7) ← distribute parenthesis

    = 4x - 2 + 6x + 14 ← collect like terms

     = 10x + 12

--------------------------------------------------

The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = lw

   = (2x - 1)(3x + 7) ← expand using FOIL

    = 6x² + 14x - 3x - 7 ← collect like terms

    = 6x² + 11x - 7
