x-intercept = (15, 0) y-intercept = (0, 3)
slope (m) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (0 - 3)/(15 - 0) = -3/15 = -1/5
Point-Slope formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) ; where (x₁, y₁) is one of the given points
y - 0 = (-1/5)(x - 15)
-5y = x - 15
x + 5y = 15
Answer: x + 5y = 15
Let f be the height of the fir trees
Let p be the height of the pine trees
We know from the problem that
f + p = 21 and 4f = 24 + p
rearrange the 2nd equation to get p = 4f - 24 and substitute into the other equation
so...
f + 4f - 24 = 21
5f - 24 = 21
5f = 45
f = 9 - height of the fir tree
substitute back into the 1st equation
9 + p = 21
p = 12 - height of the pine tree
A and T are points. On their own, they cannot define a line. So we can rule out choice A
WCR and TRA are angles. For any triple the points do not fall on the same straight line. So we cannot define any lines here. This crosses off choice B
Choice C is the answer because WC does define a line. We only need two points to form a line. Similarly CR does the same job. We draw a line marker with two arrows at each end to be placed over the letters to indicate "line".
Choice D is similar to choice D; however, it is not the answer because WT is the same line as WC. In other words, WC = WT. We haven't named a new line at all. We're simply repeating ourselves.
Answer:m=250
Step-by-step explanation:
0.1m+8-3=30
0.1m+5=30
0.1m=25
0.1 times 250=25
m=250
