Hi there!
The two trapezoids are similar, so we can determine a common scale factor:
OL/UR = NM/TS
9/3 = 6/2
3 = 3
Trapezoid ONML is 3x larger than UTSR, so:
RS = 4, LM = y
3RS = LM
3 · 4 = y = 12.
Find x using the same method:
3UT = ON
3(2x+1) = 4x + 9
6x + 3 = 4x + 9
2x = 6
x = 3.
Answer:
y = 3/4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
Slope Formula:
Step 1: Define
(0, -2) y-intercept
(4, 1) random point
Step 2: Find slope <em>m</em>

y = 3/4x + b
Step 3: Write linear equation
y = 3/4x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
In the picture, That's a correct answer.
