Answer:

y = -2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we can use this formula: y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Y2 is the y - coordinate from the second coordinate, so you should be able to figure out what the rest of the letters represent in that formula.

So we would plug in the coordinates and find the slope.

-1 - (-5)/2 - 0

4/-2

slope = m = -2

We know the slope and coordinates, so we can plug those into the equation and find the y intercept, or b.

y = mx + b

-1 = -2(2) + b

-1 = -4 + b

3 = b

Now we know the slope and y intercept so we can put them into the equation to find the final equation, which is: y = -2x + 3

luda_lava [24]

Answer:

286.97

Step-by-step explanation:

find the area of the rectangle first

14*15=210

Next

Find the area of a circle

πr^2=a

the radius of the circle is half the height of the rectangle

π*(7*7)=a

a=153.94

Now

Divide the area by two

153.94/2=76.97

Now add the two areas

76.97+210
