Answer:
y = -3x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
first, find the slope
(-4, 6)
(1, -9)
remember the equation for the slope
insert given points
((-9) - (6)) / ((1) - (-4))
simplify
( -9 - 6) / (1 + 4)
= -15/ 5
= -3
now insert it into the equation of the line
remember, the equation of the line is
y = mx + b
where "m" is the slope
and "b" is the y-intercept
to find "b", you just have to plug in a point that is found on the line
we know that (-4, 6) and (1. -9) is found on the line, so let's just use (-4, 6) for this problem
y = mx + b
substitute in the slope of this line
y = -3x + b
now substitute in the given points
6 = -3 * -4 + b
and solve it like any algebra problem, by inverse operations and simplifying
6 = 12 + b
-12 -12
-6 = b
so the equation of the line is
y = -3x -6
Y = mx + b....m is the slope and b is the y intercept
slope(m) = 5...(4,0)...x = 4 and y = 0
now we sub our info into y = mx + b...we r looking for b, the y intercept
0 = 5(4) + b
0 = 20 + b
-20 = b
so ur equation is y = 20x - 20...but we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = 20x - 20....subtract 20x from both sides
-20x + y = -20...multiply by -1 to make x positive
20x - y = 20 <== standard form

Use the are formula for a rectangle which is Length times Width to find the amount of square feet of carpeting.(16 times 14=224ft^2) Then you need multiply 224 by 12 because you have 224 square feet at $12 per square foot. So in the end it will cost $2688 to get the new carpet.
Answer:
26.75 units ^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the shape is complex, divide it into 3 right angled triangles and one square. Find the area of these individual shapes first, then fin the sum of these area to calculate the ultimate area of e complex shape:
Triangle 1 = 1/2 x 2 x 5 = 5 units ^2
Triangle 2 = 1/2 x 2 x 2 = 2 units ^2
Triangle 3 = 1/2 x 3.5 x 9 = 15.75 units ^2
Square = 2 x 2 = 4 units squared.
Now add all these up 15.75 + 2 + 5 + 4 = 26.75 units squared.
Hope this helps
