Answer:
y = -1/2x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
⇒ y - 0 = -1/2(x - 6)
⇒ y = -1/2x + 3
The area will be half the product of the lengths of AB and CD.
|AB| = √((6-1)² +(-2-3)²) = 5√2
|CD| = √((5-2)² +(5-2)²) = 3√2
Area = (1/2)*(5√2)*(3√2) = (1/2)*(15*2) = 15
The appropriate choice is ...

Answer:
y < -1/4x -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The boundary line appears to go through the points (-4, 0) and (0, -1). This tells you it has a "rise" of -1 for a "run" of 4. The slope is ...
m = rise/run = -1/4
The y-intercept (b) is the point where the y-axis is crossed. The slope-intercept equation of the boundary line is ...
y = mx + b
y = -1/4x -1
__
The boundary line is dashed, so is not included in the solution set. The shading is below the line, so all y-values less than (but not equal to) the boundary line are in the solution set:
y < -1/4x -1
The distributive property
The constant of proportionality is 3/8
