Answer:

25 = base

Step-by-step explanation:

I searched all of this on YT to try and help

so first we need to know the area of a Trapezoid

A = 1/2h(b + b)

86 = 1/2(18 + b)4

we dont know the base where going to put b

we also dont like fractions so where going to get rid of 2 by multiplying 2 by 2. And we do it in both ends, so where doing the same with our Area.

172 = (18 + b)4

the 4 is multipling so divide it on both ends.

43 = (18 + b)

then do the opposite operation on the 18, by subtracting 18 on both sides.

25 = b

is the base

check the work by plugging it back in

A = 1/2h(b + b)

A = 1/2 4(18+25)

A = 1/2 4(43)

A = 1/2(172)

A = 86in

N = x + y - n = 5 and part two x = u + v = o whats the answer?

Colt1911 [192]

Just substitute the value of x from second equation into first equation:
N = x + y - n = 5
N = u + v + y - n = 5
N = 0 + y - n = 5

In short, N would be equal to y - n which is still equal to 5

Hope this helps!

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below? Graph of a line going through negative 2, 3 and 1, negative 3

V125BC [204]

Answer:

3. 2x + y = −1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line, we write it first in the slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+q$

where

m is the slope

q is the y-intercept

From the graph, we see that the line crosses the y-axis at y = -1, so the y-intercept is -1:

$q=-1$

Now we have to find the slope, by calculating the rate of change of the line through 2 points:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Taking the two points at (-2,3) and (1,-3), we find:

$m=\frac{-3-3}{1-(-2)}=\frac{-6}{3}=-2$

So the equation of the line is

$y=-2x-1$

Now we have to re-arrange it in the standard form, so in the form

$ax+bx=c$

where a, b and c are integer numbers.

To do that, we simply add +2x on both sides of the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, and we get:

$y+2x=-1$

So, option 3).
