It is the quick and easy method of calculating the interest charge on a loan.
Since it's literally cut in half, that means the triangle's area is literally half of the rectangle's area. Therefore, if we write it as
the triangle's area (a)=(1/2)*(b) (the rectangle's area) we can multiply 2 to both sides to get 2*a=b. Since a is (2x+10), we can plug it in and use the distributive property (since we just can't add up variables and integers) to get
2*(2x+10)=4x+20=b
The y-intercept of a line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.
if I sketched it correctly I think its 7 but I'm not 100% Sure
3/5g-(1/3)=(-10/3)
move the 1/3 over
3/5g=(-10/3)+(1/3) (notice the + sign)
3/5g= (-9/3)
3/5g=(-3)
move the 3/5 over (divide)
g= (-3/(3/5))
g= (-3x5/3)
g= -15/3
g= -5
