Answer:

x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

So we start with the equation -6x - 7 = -1(-9 + 2x)

Then we distribute the -1 to the -9 and the 2x so we get: -6x - 7 = 9 - 2x

Now we make the x-values on one side and the numbers on the other side like this:

-6x + 6x - 7 - 9 = 9 - 2x + 6x - 9

-16 = 4x

Now we divide 4 / -16 which gives us x = -4

-16/4 = 4x/4

x = -4

Answer:

A) 15 cm B) 1292 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A) height can be used by using Pythagoras theorem

Height^2+base^2=slant^2

height^2+8^2=17^2

height=15 cm

B) The amount of cardboard used can be found by calculating the area

Area=2*(area of triangle) + 3*(area of rectangles)

17*16+3*(20*17)=1292 cm^2

Determine the equation of the line passing through the points (-1, 1) and (1, 7).

evablogger [386]

Answer:

$3x + y = -4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given to points on the line we are trying to find, hence we are able to determine the slope/gradient.

$( - 1, \: 1) \: and \: (1, \: 7) \\ slope = \frac{ {y}^{2} - {y}^{1} }{ {x}^{2} - {x}^{1} } \\ \\ s = \frac{7 - 1}{1 - ( - 1)} \\ s = \frac{6}{2}$

Slope is equal to 3.

Since we have the value for the slope, we can now use one of the points on the line to determine the equation of the line.

note that the coefficient of x is the slope. In this case the A from the standard form (Ax + By= C) is the slope.

$\\ let \: us \: use \: the \: point \: ( - 1, \: 1) \\ a = 3 \: \: \: \: y = 1 \: \: \: x = - 1\\ ax + by = c \\ 3( - 1) + 1 = c \\ - 3 + 1 = c$

$- 2 = c \\ therefore \: the \: equation \: of \: the \\ \: line \: is \\ ax + by = c \\ 3x + y = - 4$

The length of segment XY is 9 cm. Which statements

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: ↴

Length of Segment XY =>9 cm

Now We have to check options

YZ=>9 cm ( It can be true if XYZ is assumed to be isosceles triangle)

XZ=> 9 cm ( Same It also can be true if XYZ is assumed to be isosceles triangle)

XZ=>973 cm or 9.73 cm ( not clearly specified in question) But it is possible as Two sides can be taken of any length )

XZ= 2XY Again It is also possible

YZ is longest side In triangle There should be longest side if it is not equilateral.

So , XZ= 2XY and YZ is longest side are more accurately possibilities of triangle XYZ
