Answer:

First we calculate the slope (which is called "m".

Slope = m = (Y2 -Y1) ÷ (X2 -X1)

m = (-8 -1) / (5 -2) = -9 / 3 = -3

We next fill in this equation: b = y -mx

We know m = -3 and we can choose a point (2, 1) to calculate "b"

b = 1 --3 * 2 b = 7

Putting this into y = mx +b

y = -3x +7

This is pretty much what it is- when you do it try to get your lines straighter

2x+3=-7<br><br> What is the answer?

Mashcka [7]

Hi there! With equations like this we want to get our variable on one side and and our constant on the other.

So with 2x + 3 = -7 you'd subtract the constant 3 from both sides of the equal sign to get 2x = -10, then you'd divide both sides by 2 to get x = -5. If you double check your work by replacing x in the original equation with our answer we'd find that 2(-5) + 3 = -7 is correct.

Hope you find this helpful :)

Answer:

12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find 1/8 of 100 so we would write it as 100÷8 to get 12.5

Now we know that 12.5 is equivalent to 1/8 but let's double check.

12.5×8 is 100

1/8 ×8 is 8/8

100=8/8

What is the area of the shaded region and the circle inside?

$r=20,1m+13,2m=33,3m$
$A_1=\pi r^2$
$A_1=33,3^2\pi$
$A_1=1108,89\pi$

What is the area of the circle inside?

$A_2=20,1^2\pi$
$A_2=404,01\pi$

What is the area of the shaded region?

$1108,89\pi -404,01\pi =704,88\pi$
$704,88\pi \approx 704,88*3,14\approx 2213,3232\approx \underline{2213,32}$

The answer: 2213,32 :)
