Answer:
either 1:2 or 2:1. I think.
X-intercept is -1 implies line passes through (-1,0).
So point slope form is
y - 0 = -2 (x -(-1) )
>> y = -2 (x +1) <----- FINAL ANSWER
we have

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

Combine like terms

Divide by
both sides


therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the value of p in the linear equation is 
Answer: 82 sq. units .
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A (9, −1), B (−1, 7), C(−5, 2), D(5, −6) are the vertices of rectangle.
Then we plot them on graph ( as provided in attachment)
Length = AB
units [By distance formula :
]
units
Width = BC =
units

Area = length x width
= 
Hence, the area of the rectangle is 82 sq. units .
