Answer:
y = -3.71x + 147.25
Step-by-step explanation:
You would subtract 5x from y so y=5x-10
For a rectangle, A = LW.
A = (3x + 2)(x - 4)
A = 3x^2 - 12x + 2x - 8
A = 3x^2 -10x - 8
Set up the following equation for this segment:
x is segment AB's length, and 3x is segment BC's length. 20 is segment AC's length.
Combine like terms:
Divide both sides by 4 to get x by itself:
x will equal 5.
Plug this value into the values for both segments:
Segment AB:
Segment AB is 5 inches long.
Segment BC:
Segment BC is 15 inches long.
