Answer:

3a + 5b - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of all 3 sides of the triangle.

To find the missing side (x ) sum the 2 known sides and subtract from the perimeter.

x = 6a + 2b - 5 - (2a + 6b - 6 + a - 9b + 3 ) ← simplify parenthesis

  = 6a + 2b - 5 - (3a - 3b - 3 ) ← distribute by - 1

  = 6a + 2b - 5 - 3a + 3b + 3 ← collect like terms

  = 3a + 5b - 2 ← length of missing side

What is the slope of the line passing through (-3, 5) and (5, -3)?
saveliy_v [14]

we know that

the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

in this problem we have

A(-3,5)\ B(5,-3)

substitute the values in the formula

m=\frac{-3-5}{5+3}

m=\frac{-8}{8}

m=-1

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

slope=-1
