Write and equation parrallel to y=-5/2x+9 that passes through the point (-6,7).

1 answer:

4 0

To be parallel, gradients are the same!
so the gradient is -5/2.
y=-5/2x +c
substitute the points youve been givrn into this to find c!
7=-5/2 (-6) +c
7=15 +c
c must equal -7
y=-5/2x -7

Can someone help me find x of this triangle

uysha [10]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of a triangle is 180°.

6x + 1 + 6x - 14 + 9x + 4 = 180°

Arrange the like terms together and simply this equation.

6x + 6x + 9x + 1 + 4 - 14 = 180°

21x - 9 = 180°

Shifting '-9' to the other side of the equation gives you '+9'

21x = 180° + 9

21x = 189

Shifting 21 to the other side of the equation (to get x) makes it ÷21 (multiply)

x = 189 ÷ 21

x = 9
