Answer: y+3=-2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let’s find the slope. To do that just do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). Substitute: (-3-2)/(3-2)= -5.

second, we want to put it in y=mx+b form so choose which coordinates you want to work with. Let’s say (2,1). So, 1=-5(2)+b

*(the one represents the y value, the -5 is slope and 2 is the x value)*

now just solve for b. b= 11

so the equation is: y=-5x+11

now, you can solve for the choices (I mean put them in y=Mx+b form) or just substitute in the coordinates to see which equation will work. In this case for choice w if we do 1+3=-2(2-4), that will be the answer.

Answer:

b

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find the slope

y2-y1/x2-x1

-3-1=-4

4-2=2

=-2-------this is our slope

point slope equation

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+3=-2(x-4)

Area is 96 length is 4x+8 width is x find x
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The area would be length times width. x(4x+8) =96

4x^2+8x = 96

4x^2+8x-96=0. We need to factor.

It would be factored to (4x-16)(x+6) = 0

x would be -6 (x+6=0)

or x would be 4 (4x-16=0)

Why would the width be negative?!? So the answer is 4

Polygon ABCD has the following vertices: A(−3, 3), B(5, 5), C(5, −4), and D(−3, −4) Calculate the area of the polygon.
aniked [119]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. When you plot the given points, you obtain a trapezoid, therefore, you must apply the formula for calculate the area of a trapezoid, which is:

A=\frac{(B+b)h}{2}

Where B is the larger base, b is the smaller base and h is the height.

2. The dimensions are:

B=9units\\ b=7units\\ h=8units

3. Substitute values:

\\A=\frac{(9 units+7units)(8units)}{2}  A=64 units^{2}

The answer is: 64 units^{2}
