yes and no

Step-by-step explanation:

Which of the points listed below is not on the line with equation 7y+2=3x-5

kicyunya [14]

Answer: Second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the folllowing Linear Equation:

$7y+2=3x-5$

You need to substitute the coordinates of each point given in the options into the equation and then evaluate.

1) Substituting $(2, -\frac{1}{7})$ into the equation, you get:

$7(-\frac{1}{7})+2=3(2)-5\\\\-1+2=6-5\\\\1=1\ (TRUE)$

2) Substituting the point $(3, -\frac{3}{7})$ . you get:

$7(-\frac{3}{7})+2=3(3)-5\\\\-3+2=9-5\\\\-1=4\ (FALSE)$

3) Apply the same procedure using the point $(1, -\frac{4}{7})$ :

$7(-\frac{4}{7})+2=3(1)-5\\\\-4+2=3-5\\\\-2=-2\ (TRUE)$

4) Apply the same procedure using the point $(-1, -\frac{10}{7})$

$7(-\frac{10}{7})+2=3(-1)-5\\\\-10+2=-3-5\\\\-8=-8\ (TRUE)$

5) Substituting $(0,-1)$ into the equation:

$7(-1)+2=3(0)-5\\\\-7+2=-0-5\\\\-5=-5\ (TRUE)$

Therefore, the point $(3, -\frac{3}{7})$ is not on the given line.

What is the value of x

Gemiola [76]

For this case, we observe that the triangles are similar.
We observe that the triagnules have three equal angles.
Therefore, to find the value of x we can use the following relationship:
$x / 15 = 5/12
$
Clearing x we have:
$x = (5/12) * (15)

x = 6.25$
Answer:
The value of x is given by:
x = 6.25
