To find the slope, use the slope(m) formula:
and plug in the two points
(0, 5) = (x₁, y₁)
(-9, -4) = (x₂, y₂)


[two negatives cancel each other out and become positive]
m = 1 The slope is 1
Width = W
Length = 3 times w = 3W
Area = length x width = 3W * W = 3W^2
It's one solution.
no matter how you solve it, it will equal j = 1.
Expand
simplify x - 5x + 35 to -4x + 35
subtract 35 from both sides
simplify -7 - 35 to -42
divide both sides by -4
two negatives make a positive
simplify 42/4 to 21/2
Answer: x = 21/2.
