Answer:

y = -3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line

y = mx + c

y - intercept point y

m - slope of the line

x - intercept point x

c - intercept point of the line

Step 1: find the slope

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Given two points

( 1 , 4) ( 2 , 1)

x1 = 1

y1 = 4

x2 = 2

y2 = 1

insert the values

m = 1 - 4 / 2 - 1

m = -3/1

m = -3

y = -3x + c

Step 2: substitute any of the two points given into the equation of a line

y = -3x + c

( 1 ,4)

x = 1

y = 4

4 = -3(1) + c

4 = -3 + c

4 + 3 = c

c = 7

Step 3: sub c into the equation

y = -3x + 7

The equation of the line is

y = -3x + 7

I can’t see the exact numbers because the pic is blurry but here’s how to solve it.

The three angles in a triangle always add up to 180. So subtract the angle that’s given and you’ll have the sum of the two other angles. Since it’s an equilateral triangle, the other two angles are the same.
So write the equation 2(whatever the angle is) = the number you get when you do 180-the given angle

For example (I’m not sure these numbers are right because the pic is blurry)
2(9x+7)=114
Then you would solve for x and once you get x, plug it into the angle expression 9x+ 7 or whatever to get the angle measure.
