4x + x = 150, x=30 (shorter piece)

5x=150

x=150/5 = 30

4x=120

x=30

total = 150

X= -1 t= 7

4(3x-1)=3+8x-11
12x-4=3+8x-11
12x-8x=4+3-11
4x= -4

What is the equation of the line with an x-intercept of -1 and a y-intercept of 2? y = 2x - 2 y = - 2x 2 y = 2x 2

guajiro [1.7K]

X intercept = -1, y = 0 (-1, 0)

<span>y intercept = 2, x = 0 (0, 2)
</span>
slope between (-1, 0) and (0, 2):

slope = (2 -0)/(0 - -1) = 2/1 = 2, m = 2

Using point (-1, 0) x₁ = -1, y₁ = 0

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 0 = 2*(x - -1)

y = 2(x + 1)

y = 2x + 2

What is the slope of the line with equation y-3=-1/2(x-2)?

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

slope = - $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

y - 3 = - $\frac{1}{2}$ (x - 2) ← is in point- slope form

with slope m = - $\frac{1}{2}$
