What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-1, 1.5) and (0.5, 0.5)

Step2247 [10]

The slope-point formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have:

$(-1,\ 1.5)\to x_1=-1,\ y_1=1.5\\(0.5,\ 0.5)\to x_2=0.5,\ y_2=0.5$

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{0.5-1.5}{0.5-(-1)}=\dfrac{-1}{1.5}=-\dfrac{1}{\frac{3}{2}}=-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\y-1.5=-\dfrac{2}{3}(x-(-1))\\\\y-1.5=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\y-\dfrac{3}{2}=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{3}\ \ \ |+\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2\cdot2}{3\cdot2}+\dfrac{3\cdot3}{2\cdot3}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{4}{6}+\dfrac{9}{6}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{5}{6}$

A square garden plot measures 180 square feet. A second square garden plot measures 320 square feet. How many more feet of fence

REY [17]

The second garden plot will require 8√5 feet more fence than the first garden plot.

Further explanation:

In order to find the fence, we have to find the perimeter of both squares

So,

Area of Square 1: A1=180 square feet

Area of Square 2: A2=320 Square feet

Let x be the side of square 1:

Then,

$A_1=x^2\\180=x^2\\Taking\ square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{180}=\sqrt{x^2}\\x=\sqrt{2*2*3*3*5}\\x=\sqrt{2^2*3^2*5}\\x=2*3\sqrt{5}\\x=6\sqrt{5}$

For second square:

Let y be the side of second square

$A_2=y^2\\320=y^2\\Taking\ square\ root\ on\ both\ sides\\\sqrt{320}=\sqrt{y^2}\\y=\sqrt{2*2*2*2*2*2*5}\\y=\sqrt{2^2*2^2*2^2*5}\\y=2*2*2\sqrt{5}\\y=8\sqrt{5}$
