i tried working this out but it doesnt make sense, at least the table doesnt... did you make this question up or get it off of a school assignment??
Well first, we have to find the y intercept. So plug in your coordinates.
-2 = 4 (3) + b
Simplify
-2 = 12 + b
now, let's put like terms together.
-14 = b
b= -14
Hope I could help!
Answer:
m<S = 38°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
m<R = (x + 17)°
m<S = (2x - 2)°
m<T = (5x + 5)°
Required:
m<S
Solution:
First, we will need to determine the value of x by creating an equation. Thus:
m<R + m<S + m<T = 180° (sum of triangle)
Plug in the values
(x + 17)° + (2x - 2)° + (5x + 5)° = 180°
x + 17 + 2x - 2 + 5x + 5 = 180
Add like terms
8x + 20 = 180
8x + 20 - 20 = 180 - 20
8x = 160
8x/8 = 160/8
x = 20
Find m<S:
m<S = 2x - 2
Plug in the value of x
m<S = 2(20) - 2 = 40 - 2
m<S = 38°
Okkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
