Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you need to find the scale factor. This is done through cross multiplying proportions. In this instance, you have to cross multiply x/4 by 3.5/7. When you multiply x and 7, you get 7x. When you multiply 3.5 and 4, you get 14. Simplify by isolating the variable, and you get 2.

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (−3, 4) and (4, −1)?

Igoryamba

Note:
The slope of a straight line passing through the points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is
$m= \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

The two given points are (-3,4) and (4,-1). Therefore the slope is
$m= \frac{-1-4}{4-(-3)} = \frac{-5}{7}$

Answer: $- \frac{5}{7}$

Find the area of the compound shape

andrey2020 [161]

This shape is separated into two trapezoids. The equation for the area of a trapezoid is .5(base1 + base2) multiplied by height. Therefore, each half of the compound shape would be equal to .5(12 + 8) * 6 or 10 * 6 = 60. So the area of the total would be 60+60 or 120.
