A line passes through point (-2, 5) and has a slope of 2/3. Points A(x, 3) and B(-2, y) lie on the line. The value of x is____,

and the value of y is _____.
Please help I've seen this problem on this website before but no one actually answered I know it's probably very simple to get the answer but I don't know how could someone tell me how to or answer it please thanks?

Use the equation y = mx +c
y = 2/3x +c              Substitute the slope (m) in
5 = 2/3(-2) +c          Substitute the point (-2,5)
5 = -4/3 +c               Make C the subject
c = 19/3

y = 2/3x + 19/3        This is the equation of the line.

Next you start subbing the points A and B in separately, using the same equation.

Subbing A(x, 3)
3       = 2/3x + 19/3         Make x the subject to find it.
-10/3 = 2/3x
     -5 = x

The point A is (-5,3)

Subbing B(-2, y)
y = 2/3(-2) + 19/3           y is already the subject and you just solve it
   = -4/3 + 19/3
y = 5

The point B is (-2, 5)

Find the missing parts of the triangle. Round to the nearest tenth when necessary or to the nearest minute as appropriate.
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

  • A) A = 27.3°, B = 56.1°, C = 96.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use the Law of Cosines:</u>

  • A = arccos [(b² + c² - a²)/(2bc)] = arccos [(13.2² + 15.8² - 7.3²)/(2*13.2*15.8)] = 27.3°
  • B = arccos [(a² + c² - b²)/(2ac)] = arccos [(7.3² + 15.8² - 13.2²)/(2*7.3*15.8)] = 56.1°
  • C = 180° - (A + B) = 180° - (27.3° + 56.1°) = 96.6°

Correct choice is A.

D'Quans grandmother made a quilt for his bed.the quilt is 2.44 meters long and 1.83 meters wide.what is the area of the quilt in
Ede4ka [16]
The best way to do this is to first change each of the measurements into feet and then calculate the area:

2.44m = 8.01ft
1.83m = 6.00ft

When multiplied together (to give the area) we get:

8.01*6.00 = 48.1ft²
