Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are parallel then they will have the same slope. So all you need to do is find the slope of the line that joins the two given points. You can use the slope formula . You can also graph the two points and use rise over run.
To obtain the graph of the function y = |x+2| we have to make a table of values of x to find the values of y. The absolute value or modulus of a real number is its numerical value without care its sign. For example, the absolute value of |4| and |-4| is 4.
In order to make a graph we are going to use the values (-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3) for x.
x = -3
y = |-3 + 2| = |-1| = 1
x = -2
y = |-2 + 2| = |0| = 0
x = -1
y = |-1 + 2| = |1| = 1
x = 0
y = |0 + 2| = |2| = 2
x = 1
y = |1 + 2| = |3| = 3
x = 2
y = |2 + 2| = |4| = 4
x = 3
y = |3 + 2| = |5| = 5
<u> x ║ y</u>
-3 1
-2 0
-1 1
0 2
1 3
2 4
3 5

Let us assume base of the window = b feet.
Height is 3 feet less than base, that is = (b-3).
Given area of the triangle = 20 feet square.
We know formula for area of a triangle:
Area = × Base × Height
Plugging values in formula, we get
20 =
Factoring quadratic, we get
=0
b+5=0
b=-5
b-8=0
b=8.
For base we can take only positive value.
<h3>Therefore, base of the triangle = 8 feet and height = 8 -3 = 5 feet.</h3>
