Slope denoted as m can be calculated from 2 diff. points using the formula:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = 1 - 12 / 25 - 0 = -11 / 25
Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. Using a point,
12 = -11/25(0) + b
12 = b
y-intercept is 12.

To summarize, slope is -11/25, negative because decreasing trend and y-intercept is 12.

A certain triangle has a perimeter of 3084 mi. The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side, and the longest side

kari74 [83]

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

Explanation

Step 1

Let

x represents the shortest side

y represents the middle side

z represents the longest side

so, set the equations

a) the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the sides, so

$\begin{gathered} \text{Perimeter= side1+side2+side3} \\ replace \\ 3084=x+y+z \\ x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \end{gathered}$

b) The shortest side measures 76 mi less than the middle side( in other words, you have to subtract 76 from middle side to get the shortest side)

$x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2)$

c) and the longest side measures 379 mi more than the middle side,( in other words, you have to add 379 to middle side to obtain the longest side)

$z=y+379\Rightarrow equation(3)$

Step 2

solve the equations

a) now, replace the x an z value sfrom equation (2) and (3) into equation(1)

$\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ (y-76)+y+(y+379)=3084 \\ -76+3y+379=3084 \\ 303+3y=3084 \\ 3y=3084-303 \\ \\ 3y=2781 \\ \text{divide both sides by 3} \\ \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{2781}{3} \\ y=927 \end{gathered}$

now, replace the y value in equatino (2) to find x

$\begin{gathered} x=y-76\Rightarrow equation(2) \\ x=927-76 \\ x=851 \end{gathered}$

c) finally, prelace x and y value in equation (1) to find z

$\begin{gathered} x+y+z=3084\Rightarrow\text{ Equation(1)} \\ 851+927+z=3084 \\ \text{add like terms} \\ 1778+z=3084 \\ \text{subtract 1778 in both sides} \\ 1778+z-1778=3084-1778 \\ z=1306 \end{gathered}$

shortest side: 851

middle side:927

longest side : 1306

I hope this helps you
