First write the equation in slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form where the m or the coefficient of the x term represents the slope of the b or the constant term represents the y-intercept.

Subtract 2x from both sides to get y = -2x - 4.

I put the x term first because that's how it is in y = mx + b form.

Now we can see that the b or the constant term is -4.

We can write this as the ordered pair (0, -4).

Keep in mind when writing a y-intercept as an ordered pair, your x-coordinate will always be 0 in the ordered pair.

A trapezoid has an area of 30m^2. if all of its side lengths are tripled, what will its new area be

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

270

Step-by-step explanation:

Because we do not know what the side lengths are, as long as they multiply to 30m^2, it's fine

For this question, let's just say the base is 5, and the height is 6. If we triple 5, we get 15, and if we triple 6, we get 18. 15*18=270

Now what if, the sides are not 5 and 6. Will the area still be the same? Let's find out.

10*3=30 so we can say for this answer, the base is 3, and the height is 10.

10 tripled is 30, and 3 tripled is 9. 30*9=270

So as we look at these 2 answers. we can conclude that the new area, no matter the side lengths, will be 270

Hope this helpes!

Question 2 (1 point)

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 24 hours - no; because depending on where you are on Earth, you have a different amount of sunlight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The day-night cycle is a complete day or a complete rotation of the earth around its axis. This takes 24 hours which is why 24 hours is the length of a full day.

People around the world however, do not get the same amount of sunlight or darkness and this is because of where they are on Earth. Due to the way the planet is tilted on its axis, some areas see sunlight more than other in a period and others see more darkness.
