Answer: B. Subtract 28 from both sides
Explanation: You need to subtract first because the variable needs to be by itself.
You can use slope formula to find slope of given points.
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-6-11)/(-3-5)
m = -17 / -8
Cancel out minus sign in both nominator and denominator. Thus,
m = 17/8
Hence, the slope is 17/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Actually, it isn't that hard. Remember the difference of squares? (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b² and in this case 9 is a and 4x is b so our answer is 81 - 16x².
Suppose the three sides are a, b, and c, with c being the longest, a being the shortest
first equation: c=(a+b)-66
second equation: 2a=c-55=> c=2a+55
plug c=2a+55 into the first equation: 2a+55= a+b-66 => b=a+121
a+b+c=a+(a+121)+(2a+55)=7272 =>4a+176=7272 =>a=1774
a=1774, b=1895, c=3603
