Answer:
y - intercept = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation: y = mx + b
Input the given values
3 = -1(2) + b
3 = -2 + b
5 = b

Step-by-step explanation: 5 23 8 03
the lenght of the longer leg of a right triangle is 9 ft longer than the lenght of the shorter leg x. The hypotenuse is 9 ft shorter than twice the lenght of the shorter leg.
shorter leg = x
longer leg = x + 9
hypotenuse = 2x - 9
Pythagorean theorem = a² + b² = c²
shorter-leg² + longer-leg² = hypotenuse²
x² + (x+9)² = (2x - 9)² solve for x
x² + (x+9) (x+9) = (2x - 9)(2x - 9)
x² + (x²+18x+81) = (4x² - 36x + 81)
(2x²+18x+81) = (4x² - 36x + 81)
0 = 2x² -54x
0 = x(2x - 54)
0 = x and 0 = 2x -54
54 = 2x
27 = x
shorter leg = 27
longer leg = 36
hypotenuse = 45
divided all the values by 9 and you get a 3, 4, 5 right triangle, so the answer checks correct
There are 3 sticks because:
4 sticks is the total and when you take away 1 stick, it is
4 - 1, which equals 3 sticks
So, the answer is 3 sticks are left.
Question: If u are in high school, why did you ask this question? You already know 4-1=3. Im guessing it was either a joke, or u were helping other people get points. If it is the second one, thx!!
