What is an equation for the line that passes through (-2,-3) with a slope of -1/2?

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line use the point slope form of a line substituting m = -1/2 and the point (-2,-3).

y -y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y --3=-\frac{1}{2}(x--2)\\y+3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x+2)

Convert to standard form by applying the distributive property and rearranging the terms.

y + 3 = -\frac{1}{2}(x+2)\\y+3 = -\frac{1}{2}x -1\\2y + 6 = -x -2\\x+2y + 6 = -2\\x + 2y = -8

The equation x +2y = -8 is the same equation as 4y + 2x = -16 just doubled----> 2x + 4y = -16

docker41 [41]

Answer:

width  9''    length 9''

Step-by-step explanation:

2 " is cut off from both sides

so the base of the box will be a square  

area * height = volume of box  

side = x

height =2  

2x^2=162  

x^2=81

x=9 inches  the side of the box

Volume =162

V=area*height      V= 81*2= 162

Graph the image of the given triangle after the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y) .
Zarrin [17]

Firstly, we will select three corner points

A=(2,3)

B=(6,8)

C=(7,4)

we are given

the transformation with the rule (x, y)→(x, −y)

y--->-y

so, it is reflected about x-axis

so, we will multiply y-value by -1

we get new points as

A=(2,-3)

B=(6,-8)

C=(7,-4)

now, we can locate these points and draw graph

we get
