The area of the figure is 41 square feet. Hope this helps!
Answer:
x=2, y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a <u>system of equations</u>.
To solve a system of equations, we use the substitution method.
We can plug in the first equation,
, into the value for <em>x</em> in the second equation. Now, the second equation looks like this:

We simplify and solve for <em>y</em>:
→ 
→ 
→ 
Now, we plug in the value for <em>y</em>, which is 3, into either equation. I will just use the first equation:
→ 
→ 
Let me know if my explanation is unclear.
Answer:
y = 1/4 x - 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The general equation for a line is y = mx + b
You know that m = 1/4. The problem is what do you do about (2,0)?
Solution
y = 1/4 x + b Let x = 2 when y = 0
0 = 1/4 * 2 + b multiply 2 * 1/4
0 = 1/2 + b Subtract 1/2 from both sides
b = - 1/2
equation y = 1/4 x - 1/2
