Answer:

<h2>y = -1/3 x + 2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of  a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as y = mx+c

m is the slope of the line

c is the intercept

m = Δy/Δx = y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

Given the points on a line to be  (3,1) and (−6,4);

x₁ = 3, y₁ = 1, x₂ = -6 and y₂ = 4

m = 4-1/-6-3

m = 3/-9

m = -1/3

To get the intercept c, we will substitute any of the points given and the value of the slope into the equation y = mx+c. Using the point (3, 1) and m = -1/3

1 = -1/3(3)+c

1 = -1+c

c  = 1+1

c =2

Substituting m = -1/3 and c = 2 into the sllpe intercept form of the equation will give;

y = -1/3 x + 2

Hence the  equation for the line in slope-intercept form is y = -1/3 x + 2

A rectangle and a square have the same area. a. The width of the rectangle is w inches. The length of the rectangle is 15 inches
harkovskaia [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a) w(4w-15)

  b) w²

  c) w(4w -15) = w²

  d) w = 5

  e) 5 by 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If w is the width, and the length is 15 less than 4 times the width, then the length is 4w-15. The area is the product of length and width.

  A = w(4w -15)

__

b) If w is the side length, the area of the square is (also) the product of length and width:

  A = w²

__

c) Equating the expressions for area, we have ...

  w(4w -15) = w²

__

d) we can subtract the right side to get ...

  4w² -15w -w² = 0

  3w(w -5) = 0

This has solutions w=0 and w=5. Only the positive solution is sensible in this problem.

The side length of the square is 5 units.

__

e) The rectangle is 5 units wide, and 4(5)-15 = 5 units long.

The rectangle and square have the same width and the same area, so the rectangle must be a square.
