Then you can cross multiply if you know how to do that.
1*x = (-11)(-3)
x = 33 but what happened to the 2 minus signs?
Remember that a ( - ) times a ( - ) = a plus. The two minus signs become a plus.

The length of material needed for the border is the perimeter of the backyard play area
<h3>How to calculate the length of material needed </h3>The area of the play area is given as:
The area of a trapezoid is calculated using:
Where L1 and L2, are the parallel sides of the trapezoid and H represents the height.
The given parameter is not enough to solve the length of material needed.
So, we make use of the following assumed values.
Assume that the parallel sides are: 25 feet and 31 feet long, respectively.
While the other sides are 10.2 feet and 8.2 feet
The length of material needed would be the sum of the above lengths.
So, we have:
Using the assumed values, the length of material needed for the border is 74.4 feet

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope-intercept formula: where m is slope and b the y-intercept.
Use the slope formula for when you have two points:
Rise over run is the change in the y-axis over the change in the x-axis. Insert values:
Simplify parentheses (negative+negative=positive)
Simplify
2 is the slope:
Now use one of the points to find the y-intercept by substituting the x and y values into the equation. Solve for b:
(4,7)
The y-intercept is -1. Insert into the equation. Change the + symbol to -:
Done.
