It’s a triangle
s
r t
rs= 2x+10 and st= x-4
the sides are equal so equal them together then solve
2x+10=x-4
+ 4 +4
2x+14=x
you got x alone so x=2x+14
now you plug in 2x+14 in for the x in rs and st
rs= 2(2x+14)+10
4x+28+10
4x+38
st= (2x+14)-4
2x+14-4
2x-10
Answer:
y = 4x + 14
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 4x + 7 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 4
• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then
y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation
to find c substitute (- 3, 2 ) into the partial equation
2 = - 12 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 12 = 14
y = 4x + 14 ← equation of parallel line
Step 1:
Add rent & car payments
=11,250+1422
=$12,672
Step 2:
to determine %, set up a proportion
12,672 is to his total of 39,600 as x is to 100
12,672/39,600 = x/100
cross multiply
(12,672)(100) = (39,600)(x)
1,267,200= 39,600x
divide both sides by 39,600
32%= x
OR
Alternative Step 2:
12,672 ÷ 39,600= 0.32
Alternative Step 3:
0.32 x 100 = 32%
or move decimal to the right 2 places
His rent and car payments are 32% of his earnings.
Hope this helps! :)
The wording of the question kinda doesn't make sense in some parts, but I'll try anyway. 1 plus 4 is 5, and since BC is 5, x is 1 for BC. -3 plus 14 is 11, so x is -3 for AB.
