Answer:

y = -1/2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the slope-intercept is y = mx + b. The m is the slope while y is the y-intercept.

y = -1/2x - 2

Which statement completes the proof that the sum of the angles of triangle PRQ is 180°? Statement Justification

vichka [17]

M∠1 + m∠RPQ + m∠5 = 180° Definition of a Straight Angle

proof : mes1= PRQ (alternate interior)

RPQ = 3 Opposite angle (vertex)
5 =Q (alternate interior)
PRQ + RPQ + RQP = 180

Please help this is hard math

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$y=-4x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope of the line AB passing through the point (2,0)
line AB is perpendicular to the line $y=\frac{1}{4}x-3$ , this equation is slope intercept for, which is $y=mx+b$ so our m or slope is $\frac{1}{4}$
Since the slope of line AB is perpendicular to $m=\frac{1}{4}$ then we use the equation $slope of line1\times slopeofline2=-1$ , so what do we multiply $\frac{1}{4}$ by to get -1? -4 right, so that's the slope of line AB with the point (2,0)
Now line CD is parallel to line AB, that means it has the same slope as AB, so slope of CD is -4
So we make the equation $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ so m= -4 and our point is (-1,6)
$y-(6)=-4(x-(-1)\\y-6=-4x-4\\y=-4x-4+6\\y=-4x+2$ thats the equation of line side CD
