We know that
the equation of a line in <span>slope intercept form is--------------> y=mx+b
where
m-----------> is the slope
b-----------> is the y-intercept point when x=0
</span><span>y+7=-1/7(x+4)---------> y+7=(-1/7)x-4/7
</span>y+7=(-1/7)x-4/7------> y=(-1/7)x-4/7-7------> y=(-1/7)x-(53/7)
the answer is
y=(-1/7)x-(53/7)-------------> this is the equation of a line in slope intercept form
m=(-1/7)=-0.14
b=(-53/7)=-7.57
y=-0.14x-7.57see the attached figure
Answer:
b. -84

Here we see that 5 does indeed equal 5.
∴ a = -84 is the solution to the equation.
Answer: -4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We have three similar triangles, let's see if we can get this right, right vertex first, then other vertex from small side:
EDF ~ GDE ~ GEF
As ratios that means
ED:DF:EF = GD:DE:GE = GE:EF:GF
x:20:y = 5:x:GE = GE:y:15
Since we're after y we choose
20/y = y/15
20(15) = y²
y² = 300
y = 10√3
y ≈ 17.32
