Answer:

y=-9/2x-10

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-1-8)/(-2-(-4))

m=-9/(-2+4)

m=-9/2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-8=-9/2(x-(-4))

y-8=-9/2(x+4)

y=-9/2x-36/2+8

y=-9/2x-18+8

y=-9/2x-10

kolezko [41]

Wesley will need 10 10-inch stones, and 9 5-inch stones.

Since he wants to begin and end the pattern with 10-inch stones, we put a 10 at the beginning and end.

10 5 10 5 10 5 10 5 10 5 10 5 10 5 10 5 10 5 10

10 x 10-inch = 100 inches
9 x 5-inch = 45 inches

100 + 45 = 145 inches
