Triangle has a total of 180 degrees
add up all angles
A+B+C = 3x+5+4x-2+2x+6=180
9x=171
x=19
Plug x values into the A , B and C expressions and you get your answers
The value of "b" is the y-intercept.
In order to figure out slope-intercept form you need 1 coordinate and the slope.
1) Find the slope, using the 2-point slope formula: "m= y2-y1 / x2-x1".
ex. m= -5 - 3 / -4 - -6 (simplify)---> m= -4
2) Fill in the blanks for point-slope formula: "y - y1 = m (x - x1)"
(choose one coordinate, it doesn't matter which one)
ex. y - -5 = -4 (x - -4)
3) Then use basic algebra to simplify.
He bought 2.5 pounds of apples on monday, then another 1.2 pounds on tuesday. In total, he bought 2.5+1.2 = 3.7 pounds of apples.
Multiply this with the cost per pound (2.20)
3.7*2.20 = 8.14
Answer: Choice C) $8.14
