Answer:

So if y=-4x+2 was changed to y=-4x+5, then the y-intercept would increase by 3.

The y-intercept was (0,2) then it becomes (0,5) in the new line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and the y-intercept is b.

Both of these equations given are in this form.

y=-4x+2 when compared to y=mx+b you see that m=-4 and b=2.

Since b=2 then the y-intercept is 2.

y=-4x+5 when compared to y=mx+b you see that m=-4 and b=5.

Since b=5 then the y-intercept is 5.

So if y=-4x+2 was changed to y=-4x+5, then the y-intercept would increase by 3.

Find value of the variables#7

Because of exterior angles theorem, y=39+65, so y=104
x and y are a linear pair, so they add up to 180. x=180-104, x=76
all angles in a triangle add up to 180, so 21+104+z=180. therefore, z=55

y=104
x=76
z=55
