Describe and correct the error a student made when graphing y+5=-3/4(x-8).

1 answer:

8 0

In step 1 the y-intercept should be plotted at (0,-6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that to find the Y intercept in any linear equation you need to use 0 as your X value, this means taking the formula in the y=mx+b form and replacing X with a 0.
Since the formula is y = -3/4x -6
We just insert a 0 insted of the "x"
y = -3/4(0) -6
y=0-6
y=6
So the y-intercept sould be placed in (0,-6)
That's what he did wrong when graphing the equation.

What is a irregular concave polygon

Answer:

An irregular polygon is any polygon that is not a regular polygon. It can have sides of any length and each interior angle can be any measure. They can be convex or concave, but all concave polygons are irregular since the interior angles cannot all be the same.

Anyone know the answer ???

Hello!

Since the angles are same side alternate angles they are equal to each other

60 - 2x = 70 - 4x

We solve this algebraically

Add 4x to both sides

60 + 2x = 70

Subtract 60 from both sides

2x = 10

divide both sides by 2

x = 5

Hope this helps!
