Using the y=mx+b format
M= slope
B= y-intercept
All you need to do, since both m and b are given us to plug them in! You should commit “y=mx+b” to memory, it’ll help you a ton!
y = -2x+5
Check the picture below.
so, the center of the circle is the midpoint of that diametrical segment, and half that length is the radius.

Answer:
distance across the pond: 13 yd
distance walked by Garret: 12 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
- distance across the pond: x yd
- distance walked by Sandy: 5 yd
- distance walked by Garret: x-1 yd
A right triangle is formed where the distance across the pond is the hypotenuse. From Pythagorean theorem:
x² = 5² + (x-1)²
x² = 25 + x² - 2x + 1
0 = 26 - 2x
x = 13
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
Make equations, l = w+5 and 2l + 2w = 150
Substitute w+5 into 2l + 2w = 150
Simplify to get 4w + 10 = 150
Subtract 10 from both sides to get 4w = 140
Divide both sides by 4 and you get 35 as width
To find the sales tax, you need to find 9.5% of 4.25
4.25*.095 = <span>.40375
Now we need to add the sales tax to the price.
4.25 + </span>.40375 = <span>4.65375
Because dollars one have 2 decimal points we should round this to 4.65
Hope this helped!
