Answer:

y = -2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write the equation using the slope. It should look like this: y = -2/3x + b. Next, find the y intercept by plugging in the point. This is what it looks like: -1 = -2/3(-3) + b. Multiply -2/3 by -3 to get 2. This is what it should look like now: -1 = 2 + b. Subtract 3 from both sides to get -3 = b. Go back to your original equation and plug in -3 for b. This is your final equation:

y = -2/3x - 3

Hope this helped! :)

Length = 20 ft

If he uses 60 ft of fencing to line his rectangular backyard, then the perimeter is 60 ft.

Perimeter formula is ((Width × 2) + (Length × 2))

10 × 2 = 20

20 × 2 = 40

40 + 20 = 60

timurjin [86]

Answer:

We know that this triangle is similar because it will have all of the same angles as the first triangle. This is because two parallel lines cut by a transversal will create the same angles. In addition, they share the final angle because we are not changing that angle. Therefore, all 3 are the same, which makes them similar triangles.
