Here the line passes through (0,0) and (1,3).
First we need to find the slope , and for that we need to use the following formula
On substituting the values from the point, we will get
Now we will use slope intercept form, which is
Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
And on substituting the values of x and y from the point (1,3) and slope, m = 3, we will get
b =0
Substituting the values of m and b in the slope intercept form, we will get
She's wrong. If you have two squares, with side
and
with side
, it's not true that the sum of their areas is equivalent to the area of a square
with side
.
So, there's no point in summing the two sides. Instead, you have to compute the areas of the two squares and then sum them up.
So, the area of the first square is , and the area of the second square is
.
Add these two numbers and you'll get how many squared meters of carpet she'll need.
