Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The y-coordinates of points A and B are both -2, so there is no change in the y-value between those points. The x-coordinates differ by 4, so the slope is ...
... slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = 0/4 = 0
b) The y-value is constant at -2 for any value of x, so the equation of the line is ...
... y = -2
We know that ∠E = ∠F because of the vertical angle theorem.
Using substitution we get 8x + 8 = 2x + 38
Solve for x.
8x + 8 = 2x + 38
8x = 2x = 30 <-- Subtract 8 from each side
6x = 30 <-- Subtract 2x from each side
x = 5 <-- Divide both sides by 6
So, x is equal to 5.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x - 8) = 24
2x - 16 = 24
Bringing like terms on one side
2x = 24 + 16
2x = 40
x = 40/ 2
x = 20
