Write the equation for the line in slope intercept form ​
Helen [10]

Answer:

  y = -2x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The line crosses the y-axis at -3, so that is the y-intercept.

It has a "rise" of -2 units for each "run" of 1 unit, so the slope is -2. (For example, from point (-1, -1) to point (0, -3).)

The slope m and y-intercept b are used in the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line:

   y = mx + b

For the values this line has, the equation is ...

   y = -2x -3

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

area of triangle ACF is (1/2) (AC) (CF) = 180

area of triangle BCE = (1/2) (BC) (CE)

BC = AC/2

CE=(2/3) CF

so (1/2) (BC) (CE) = (1/2) (AC/2) (2/3)CF = (1/2)(2/3)(180) = 60 sq cm
