Answer:

y=1/4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(1-(-2))/(8-(-4))

m=(1+2)/(8+4)

m=3/12

m=1/4

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1/4(x-(-4))

y+2=1/4(x+4)

y=1/4x+4/4-2

y=1/4x+1-2

y=1/4x-1

HELP MEEEEE PLEASEEEEEE

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

$x=16\dfrac{28}{37}\\ \\y=5\dfrac{1}{3}\\ \\z=7.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows three paralel lines which divide the large triangle into three similar triangles.

By Thales theorem,

$\dfrac{5}{z}=\dfrac{y}{8}=\dfrac{2}{3}$

Then

$\dfrac{5}{z}=\dfrac{2}{3}\Rightarrow 2z=15,\ z=7.5\\ \\\dfrac{y}{8}=\dfrac{2}{3}\Rightarrow 3y=16,\ y=\dfrac{16}{3}=5\dfrac{1}{3}$

From the similarity of triangles,

$\dfrac{x}{20}=\dfrac{z+8}{z+8+3}\\ \\\dfrac{x}{20}=\dfrac{7.5+8}{7.5+8+3}\\ \\\dfrac{x}{20}=\dfrac{15.5}{18.5}\\ \\x=20\cdot \dfrac{155}{185}=20\cdot \dfrac{31}{37}=\dfrac{620}{37}=16\dfrac{28}{37}$
