Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I’m assuming that the equation is to be written in slope intercept form (y=mx+b), so for this, you want to find the slope and y-intercept. To find the slope, use the equation in picture 1.
0 - 5 = -5
1 - 5 = -4
-5 / -4 = 1.25
So m, or the slope, is equal to 1.25.
To find the y-intercept, make a table like the second picture. Choose one of the ordered pairs as the given. I used 1,0.
0,?
1,0
Now find the change in x, which in this case, is 1. Then set up something like picture three.
1.25/1 = ?/1
?=1.25
Now backtrack to get:
0, -1.25
1, 0
Now we know what is y when x is 0, we know the y intercept and can make the equation:
y = 1.25x - 1.25
Answer:
n = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for angle sum of a polygon is S = 180 (n - 2), where S is the sum and n is the sides.
We are given that the sum is 2880, and are trying to find n.
Simply sub in S = 2880,
2880 = 180 (n - 2)
Divide by 180 to get (n - 2) by themselves on the right side,
16 = n - 2
Now add 2 to the other side to get n by itself
18 = n
n = 18
Hope this helped!! Please feel free to ask me if there's anything you don't understand from this working
CD and DE are equal distance so their equations are equal:
2x+7 = 4(x-3)
2x+7 = 4x-12
Subtract 2x from both sides
7 = 2x-12
Add 12 to both sides
19 = 2x
9.5 = x
Now that u have x just plug it into the equation for DE
4(9.5-3)
38-12
26 is the answer
