Answer:

-7/2 is the slope. -10.5 is your starting point on the y-axis. You go from -10.5, up 7 and over to the left 2 times because it's negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x-2y=-21

-2y=7x-21

y=-7/2x-21/2

y=-7/2x-10.5

Hope this helps!

You might want to simplify the equation first. Basically, we'll use y = ax+b instead.

-7x-2y=-21\\-2y=-21+7x\\y=\frac{-21}{-2}+\frac{7x}{-2} \\y=\frac{21}{2}-\frac{7x}{2}\\y=\frac{21-7x}{2}

Should have been like this then you are able to graph.

To graph, you need to find the x-intercept and y-intercept.

(1) Find x-intercept, substitute y = 0

0=\frac{21-7x}{2} \\0=21-7x\\7x=21\\x=3

Thus, the graph has a x-intercept at (3,0). For those who are wondering where does the fractional 2 go, just multiply the whole equation by 2 to get rid of the fraction.

(2) Find y-intercept, substitute x = 0

y=\frac{21-7x}{2}\\ y=\frac{21-0}{2}\\ y=\frac{21}{2} \\

Also 21/2 = 10.5, Thus the graph passes y-axis at (0, 10.5)

Now plot the graph, make a line from x-intercept and y-intercept and you should get like this (Picture below.)

The two triangles are similar by AAA property ie

Angle Angle Angle property

Let us name the two triangles as ABC and DEF

By observing the figure

mB=mE=90   (right angled triangle)

mA=mD   (parallel lines property)

mC=mF    (parallel lines property)

Therefore by AAA the two triangles are similar .

The diagram is given below.
