Remark
Base angles of Isosceles triangles are equal.
Equation
That means that 8x + 14 = 14x - 15
Solution
8x + 14 = 14x - 15 Add 15 to both sides
8x + 14+15 = 14x Combine
8x + 29 = 14x Subtract 8x from both sides
8x - 8x + 29 = 14x - 8x Combine
29 = 6x Divide by 6
x = 29/6
x = 4 5/6
Answer
x = 4 5/6 or 4.833
8x + 14 = 8 * (4 5/6) + 14
8x + 14 = 38 2/3 + 14
8x + 14 = 52 2/3 or 52.6666
14x - 15 = 14 *(4 5/6) - 15
14x - 15 = 67 2/3 -15
14x - 15 = 52 2/3 or 52.666
Answer: try it yourself
Step-by-step explanation:
You first have to put 8x-4y=8 into y=mx+b
So -4y=8x+8
You have to get y alone
so you divide each side by -4 y=-2x-2
the slope is -2
