What is it? I will help. :)
The answer has to resemble y=Mx+b so to find your y intercept plug in your coordinates into that equation so put your slope in for m and your x intercept in for x and the y intercept in for y so -4= -3(-1)+b now get b alone -1=b so your equation would be y=-3x-1

Answer: 297 square cm</h3>
=============================================
Work Shown:
Break up the figure as shown in the diagram below.
A rectangle and trapezoid form
-------------
Area of rectangle = base*height = 9*15 = 135 cm^2
Area of trapezoid = (1/2)*(b1+b2)*h = (1/2)*(18+9)*12 = 162 cm^2
total area = (area of rectangle)+(area of trapezoid)
total area = (135) + (162)
total area = 297 square cm
Assuming that is 2 right triangles sharing a side
height^2 = 20^2 -7^2
height^2 = 400 - 49
height^2 = 351
height =

x^2 = 24^2 - <span>18.7349939952^2
x^2 = 576 -351
x^2 = 225
x = 15
