Let m = slope

m = (2 - 1)/(2 - 5)

You finish.

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2}-\underset{x_1}{1}}}\implies \cfrac{-3}{1}$

It should be 100 because it has to add up to 180 and 50+30=80 so the third angle must be 100

A worker has job offers from two companies. The information below summarizes the job offer from each company.Company A:Starting

Zanzabum

Using linear functions, we have that:

For Company A: $S_A(n) = 31000 + 3000n$

For Company B: $S_B(n) = 38000 + 2000n$

B. The salaries will be the same after 7 years.

A linear function is given by:

$y = mx + b$

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
b is the y-intercept, which is the initial value.

Item a:

For Company A, the salary starts at $31,000, with a raise of $3,000 each year. Thus, $b = 31000, m = 3000$ , and the salary after n years is given by:

$S_A(n) = 31000 + 3000n$

For Company B, the salary starts at $38,000, with a raise of $2,000 each year. Thus, $b = 38000, m = 2000$ , and the salary after n years is given by:
