One way to write a line is y=mx+b, where b is a number, m is the slope of the line, and y and x are variables that you can plug numbers into. We know that we have two points, (0,5) and (10,0). To find the slope of a line, we can use the equation

Plugging this in for our points, we get

as our slope (we get -1/2 by dividing both -5 and 10 by 5 from the previous fraction), making our equation y=(-1/2)x+b. Plugging a point in to find out what b is, we get 0=(-1/2)10+b=-5+b. Adding 5 to both sides to separate the b, we get 5=b, making our equation y=(-1/2)x+5. To find out what x is for (x,2), since the y value comes second, we can plug in 2 into our equation to get 2=(-1/2)x+5. Since we want to solve for x, we have to separate it. Subtracting 5 from both sides, we get -3=(-1/2)x. Since we can multiply -1/2 by its reciprocal (switching the numerator and denominator) to get 1 (and therefore x on the right sides as 1*x=x), we multiply both sides by -2 to get 6=x, making the point (6,2)

Answer:
36°, 54°, 90°
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to assume that the given measures are <em>angle</em> ratios, not <em>side</em> ratios. Sides in the ratios 2:3:5 will not form a triangle.
For some multiplier x, the angle values will total 180°.
2x +3x +5x = 180
x = 180/(2+3+5) = 18
Then the angle measures are ...
2x° = 2·18° = 36°
3x° = 3·18° = 54°
5x° = 5·18° = 90°
The angle measures are 36°, 54°, and 90°.
