Answer:
1) 0.75
2) y = x - 3
3) (4, 0); (0, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) by solving:
y = x - 3
m is the slope, so or you can write as 0.75.
To find the x and y intercepts, set the y value to zero and solve (x-intercept), and b is the y-intercept.
We will have to use the formula for the area of a trapezoid on this problem, which is ( and
are the bases of the trapezoid and
is the height):
All we need to do is substitute the information we are given into our formula:
Now, let's just simplify the equation:
The missing base has a length of 13 units.
