Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x + b

-7 = -3(-3) + b

-7 = 9 + b

-16 = b

y = -3x - 16

5x=2x-15 y=2x-15 and y=5x

Ipatiy [6.2K]

5x = 2x-15
3x = -15
x = -5

substitute x = -5 into one of your equations
so y = 5x becomes y = 5 x -5
y= -25

x=-5 and y=-25

How do I find the value of x

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$x=144$

Step-by-step explanation:

$We\ can\ observe\ that:\\The\ polygon\ is\ an\ octagon\ as\ it\ is\ bounded\ by\ 8\ linear\ sides.\\Hence,\\We\ know\ that,\\The\ Interior\ Angle\ Sum\ of\ a\ polygon\ with\ n\ is\ given\ by\ the\ formula:\\Interior\ Angle\ Sum=180(n-2)\\Hence,\\As\ we\ already\ know\ that,\\The\ number\ of\ sides\ in\ this\ polygon=n=8\\Hence,\\The\ Interior\ Angle\ Sum\ Of\ An\ Octagon=180(8-2)=180*6=1080\\$

$Hence,\\\angle 1+ \angle 2+\angle 3+\angle 4+\angle 5+\angle 6+\angle 7+\angle 8=1080\\Hence,\\129+132+136+124+141+158+116+x=1080\\Hence,\\936+ \angle x=1080\\\angle x=1080-936=144$

A rectangle has a length of 17 less than 6 times it's width. If the area of the rectangle is 7585 square feet find the length of

anzhelika [568]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

205 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is (6w-17) and the area is ...

A = LW

7585 = (6w-17)(w)

6w² -17w -7585 = 0

Perhaps most straightforward is using the quadratic formula to solve this.

For ax² +bx +c = 0, the solution is x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a). For the above quadratic, the solution is ...

$x=\dfrac{-(-17)\pm\sqrt{(-17)^2-4\cdot6\cdot(-7585)}}{2\cdot6}=\dfrac{17\pm\sqrt{182329}}{12}\\\\x=\dfrac{17\pm427}{12}=\{-34\frac{1}{6},37\}$

The width is 37 feet, so the length is ...

6(37) -17 = 205 . . . feet

The length of the rectangle is 205 feet.
