P = -16
Subtract 7 from both sides to isolate the variable.
Answer:
17.6 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio of similar shapes = a : b, then
area of shapes = a ² : b²
Δ PTQ and Δ PRS are similar and so the ratio of corresponding sides are equal, that is
PT : PR = 6 : 9 = 2 : 3, thus
ratio of areas = 2² : 3² = 4 : 9
let the area of Δ PQT be x, then using proportion
=
( cross- multiply )
9x = 4(x + 22) ← distribute
9x = 4x + 88 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
5x = 88 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 17.6
Thus area of Δ PQT = 17.6 m²
Answer:
n = 112/13 = 8.615
Step-by-step explanation:
(3/8) n + 5n - 30 = (17/8)n - 2
(3/8)n +5n - (17/8)n = 30-2
(13/4)n = 28
n = 28 * 4/13
n = 112/13
n = 8.615
Answer:
y = -0.83x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form is y = mx+b.
M is the slope: In this case the slope (rise/run) is 10/12. However, the slope is decreasing is that would make it negative.
Now we have: y = -0.83x + b
B represents the y-intercept. The y-intercept here is -2. So our final equation is:
y = -0.83x - 2
