Answer:

y = - 2x + 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2, then

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 5) into the partial equation

5 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 5 + 12 = 17

y = - 2x + 17 ← equation of line

Area of a rectangular field is 2c^3-c^2+6 square units. If the length of the field is c-2 units, what is its width ?

Tema [17]

If you just factor the original polynomial(The area) then you will find that one of the factors is c-2(the length) and the other will be the width.
When I factored it, I got 2c+3 as the width.

The midpoint of GH are M(4,3) and D(5,-6). The coordinates of the endpoint are?

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The endpoint coordinates are (3,12)

Step-by-step explanation: $\frac{5+x^{2} }{2} =4$ $\frac{-6+y^{2} }{2} = 3$

You multiply 4 by 2 which gives you 8 and write the equation $5+x^{2} =8$ then you subtract 5 from 8 to get 3 for the x coordinate.

You multiply 3 by 2 which gives 6 and writhe the equation $-6+y^{2}=6$ then you substitute the -6 for +6 and add +6 and 6 to get 12 for the y coordinate.

To check use the midpoint formula with coordinates D and your endpoint coordinates $\frac{5+3}{2}=\frac{8}{2} =4 \\$ $\frac{-6+12}{2} =\frac{6}{2} =3$ and you get the answer for the midpoint which is (4,3)
