Answer:

y= -3/5x - 7 (assuming slope-intercept form)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we see the slope. The basic template for a slope-intercept question is

y=mx + b

So, we put in -3/5 as "m" in this case, as it is the slope to get y= -3/5x +b

To find b, we can just try out the point that the equation gave us.

-3/5 * -5 = 3

Then, to get to -4 from 3, we need to subtract 7.

Then, we get our whole slope-intercept equation. y=-3/5x - 7

Answer:

The equation is y = 3/5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Construct an equation. We can use the slope-point formula to construct an equation from these (y - y₁ = slope * (x - x₁)). If you plug in these values, you'll get the equation y + 4 = -3/5(x +5).

2. Simplify. If you simplify, you'll get that y = 3/5x - 1 by isolating y.

Answer: The equation of the line is y = 3/5x - 1.

The area of a triangle is found by multiplying half of the measure of its base by its height. The area of the following right tr
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

\sf Area\:of\:a\:triangle=\dfrac12 \times base \times height

Given:

  • area = 18 cm²
  • base = 6 cm
  • height = (h + 1) cm

Substitute the given values into the equation and solve for h:

\sf \implies 18 = \sf \dfrac12 \times 6 \times (h+1)

\sf \implies 18 = \sf \dfrac62 (h+1)

\sf \implies 18 =3(h+1)

expand using distributive property of addition a(b+c)=ab+ac:

\sf \implies 18=3h+3

subtract 3 from both sides:

\sf \implies 3h=15

divide both sides by 3:

\sf \implies h=5

<u>To verify</u>:

Half of the base is 3 cm.

If h=5, then the height of the triangle is 6 cm.

Multiplying 3 by 6 is 18.

This matches the given area, so we can verify that h = 5.

Which table represents a linear function?
mart [117]
Well, a linear function is proportional, a straight line (on a graph). And the numbers must not have the same answer. For instance, if the X input is 5, and the Y output is 7. And then another X input is 5, and the Y output is 8, that's non-linear.

So, the Answer would be the third graph. This is because the X values are steadily increasing, and so are the Y values. 

For the X and Y values, for each time X increases by 1, Y increases by -8. This is, linear because both sides are constantly and evenly increasing.
