what does the slope of -1 tell you about thr relationship between lengths and widths of rectangles with perimeter 24?
1 answer:
Using linear function concepts, the slope of -1 means that when one of the length/width is increased by 1, the other is decreased by 1.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>A linear function is modeled by:
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.
In this problem:
- The lengths and the widths are interchangeable, that is, either can be considered as the input or as the output.
- The slope of -1 means that when the input in increased by 1, the output is decreased by -1, that is, when one of the length/width is increased by 1, the other is decreased by 1.

Answer:
(A) At the intersection of the first line with the third line, the bottom left angle is 115 degrees. At the intersection of the second line with the third line, the uppercase left angle is 65 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
Alternate interior angles are supplementary when parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. The first description seems to be describing alternate interior angles. (See attachment)
_____
<em>Comment on orientation</em>
If the transversal is oriented horizontally, then the descriptions of the angles will be of different angles than assumed here.
Answer:
y=2x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
first use the y2-y1/x2-x1 then use y=mx+b after
plug in 3 for y2 and 5 for y1
then plug in 0 for x2 and 1 for x1
=
and 2 is ur slope
___________________
now use y=mx+b
i usually use the first point but u can u anyone u want
plug in 1 for x
plug in 5 for y
and plug in 2 for m
5=2(1)+b
5=2+b
subtract 2 on both sides
5-2=3
3=b and b is ur y-intercept
y=2x+3
hope this helps
