Answer:

y = 1/2x -1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is typically written as y = mx + b.

m is the slope of the line, while b is the y-intercept. y is the y-coordinate and x is the x-coordinate.

Since it indicated that the line has a slope of 1/2, we can substitute the m in the equation with 1/2.

y = 1/2x + b

In order to find the intercept of the line, we use the equation of a line to substitute the y-coordinate and x-coordinate of (-3,-3) to discover the y-intercept of b.

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

One half of -3 is -1.5.

-3 = -1.5 + b

Add -1.5 to both sides of the equation.

-3 = -1.5 + b

+1.5  +1.5

-1.5 = b

Since we found the y-intercept, we can now place it into our equation.

y = 1/2x -1.5 and that's the answer!

Point B is on line segment AC . Given AB=3x,AB=3x, BC=4x+8,BC=4x+8, and AC=5x+10,AC=5x+10, determine the numerical length of AC
kolezko [41]

Answer:

AC = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4x + 8 = 5x + 10

7x + 8 = 5x + 10

2x + 8 = 10

2x = 2

x = 1

5(1) + 10 = 15

Find the measures of EAF DAE and CAD
sdas [7]
You have to build an equation to find the answer,

angles in a straight line add upto 180° 
so your equation would be,

12x+30°=180°
      -30    -30
=12x=150°
   ÷12  ÷12
=x=12.5°

now find the measures of the angles by using 12.5 as x.

angle EAF= 2x
                 =2×12.5
                 =25° degrees

angle DAE= 4x
                 =4×12.5
                 =50°degrees

angle CAD=6x
                 =6×12.5
                 =75°degrees

check,
30+25+50+75=180°degrees

hope this helps.......
