I'll need to assume that your "-14,9" means (-14,9); if so, please use parentheses next time to indicate that you're sharing the coordinates of a point.

As we go from (-14,9) to (-10,18), x increases by 4 and y increases by 9.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 9/4.

We want the intercepts of this line.  Let's use the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.  Substituting the given info:  -10 for x and 18 for y, and m = 9/4, we get:

18 = (9/4)(-10) + b, where b is the y-intercept.

Solving for b, we get 18 + 90/4 = (72+90)/4 = 162/4, or 81/2.

Then b = 81/2, and the equation of the line is y = (9/4)x + 81/2.

Now find the x-intercept.  To do this, let y = 0; then (9/4)x = -81/2,  Mult. both sides by 4 to eliminate the fractions:  9x = -162, or x = -18.  The x-intercept is (-18,0) and the y-intercept is (0,81/2)

Reika [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1)  

2(x – 4) + 32

Multiply it out.

2 * x - 2 * 4 + 32

2x - 8 + 32  

2x + 24

2)

9x + 4(x + 2) – 5

Multiply it out

9x + 4 * x + 4 * 2 - 5

9x + 4x + 8 - 5

A rug shaped like a rectangle is 2.5 meters long and 1.8 meters wide what is the perimeter in meters of the rug
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

P = 8.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The length of a rectangle = 2.5 m

The width of a rectangle = 1.8 m

We need to find the perimeter of the rug. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

P=2(l+b)

= 2(2.5+1.8)

= 8.6 m

So, the perimeter of the rug is 8.6 m.

10%= 1.1

to get 40% you times it by 4

40%= 4.4
