To convert inches to yards you would divide the number of inches by inches per yard.
The numerator would be the inches given and the denominator would be 36
The ratio would be inches / inches per yard.
Numerator = inches
Answer:
B. y=1/2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
From the graph, we read the slope of line JK.
slope = rise/run = -3/-6 = 1/2
The equation we need has the same slope.
y = mx + b
y = (1/2)x + b
It passes through point P(6, -2). Now we find b.
-2 = (1/2)(6) + b
-2 = 3 + b
b = -5
The equation is
y = (1/2)x - 5
-3x+24y-36 . You notice that the GCF =3 (that means the number that divides all factors)
3( - x + 8y -12) or you can put the "-" sign outside the parenthesis, but mind you , you will have to change all signs in the parenthesis:
-3( x - 8y +12)
Because angle L is the common angle between lines JL and KL, your answer is angle L. Hope that made sense.
