Answer:
-0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
1-3= -2
9-2= 8
-2/8= -0.25
So the trapezoid has 2 parallel sides making segments AD and BC transversals
Therefore making angle c and angle b add up to 180
(180-3x) + 3x + 180-9x +9x
180 +12x = 360
180= 12x
x= 15
Answer:
Not equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
The three would also be distributed to z making the correct equivalent expression 15+3z
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the "point-slope" form of a linear equation may be expressed as
y = mx + b,
where m is the gradient.
If m is negative, the gradient is negative.
If m is positive, the gradient is positive.
In our case, if we consider option A,
x + 3y = -2 (rearranging)
3y = -x -2
y = (-1/3) x - (2/3)
if we compare this to the general equation at the top, we can see that
gradient, = m = (-1/3) which is negative.
hence option a has a negative gradient.
