➡ [12 (3x ) - 7 ] over 12
➡ ( 36x - 7 ) over 12
Answer:
y = 5x/2 + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the equation for slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. Since we have the coordinates of one point on this line and the slope, we can substitute that in and find b first:
y = mx + b
-8 = 5/2(-4) + b
-8 = -10 + b
b = 2
So we can use the slope and this y intercept we found to plug back into the equation:
y = mx + b
y = 5x/2 + 2
You can find the segment congruent to AC by finding another segment with the same length. So first, you need to find the length of AC.
C - A = AC
0 - (-6) = AC Cancel out the double negative
0 + 6 = AC
6 = AC
Now, find another segment that also has a length of 6.
D - B = BD
2 - (-2) = BD Cancel out the double negative
2 + 2 = BD
4 = BD
4 ≠ 6
E - B = BE
4 - (-2) = BE Cancel out the double negative
4 + 2 = BE
6 = BE
6 = 6
So, the segment congruent to AC is B. BE .
