Answer:
the line through the points negative 6 comma 0 and 0 comma negative 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite the equation to something you are familiar with such as the slope intercept form; y = mx + b. This means you need to solve for y.
3x + 9y = -18 --- divide everything by 3.
x + 3y = -6
3y = -6 - x
y = -2 - 1/3x
your slope is -1/3 and your y intercept is - 2.
remember, y-intercept is when x = 0. therefore, when x = 0, y = -2.
write as an ordered pair (0, -2). the only option that has (0, -2) is the second one.
Therefore, the line through the points negative 6 comma 0 and 0 comma negative 2.
3/19 = 0.157...not this one
3/16 = 0.1875...not this one
3/11 = 0.2727 <== this one does
3/8 = 0.375...not this one
X+y=12 -- 1
3x+2y=29 -- 2
(1)x2
2x+2y=24 -- 1
(2)-(1)
x=5
Sub x into 1
x+y=12
5+y=12
y=7
Her two numbers are 5 and 7
We will use the Pythagorean theorem:
8² + 12² = c²
64 + 144 = c²
c = √208 ≈ 14.42
14.42 - 12 = 2.42 in
The direct distance between the lizard and the cactus is 2.42 inches.
