Answer:

Angle Sum Property of triangle states that the sum of all the angles of a triangle is equal to 180°

Therefore ,

$\bold{x + (x + 10) + (x - 40) = 180} \\ \\\bold{ x + x + 10 + x - 40 = 180 } \\ \\ \bold{3x - 30 = 180} \\ \\ \bold{ 3x = 180 + 30} \\ \\ \bold{3x = 210 }\\ \\ \bold{x = \cancel{\frac{210}{3}}} \\ \\\bold\blue{ x = 70 \: degrees}$

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

y = 4/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b is the formula for finding the slope intercept form equation

m = slope

b = y intercept

If you look at points (-3, 0) and (0, 4), you can calculate the slope

You have to go over, from point (-3, 0), 3 times, and up four to get to the point (0, 4)

Slope is change in y over change in x, so, if we look to see where the line crosses the y-axis, or vertical axis, we can see it reach the number four on the y-axis, b = 4

Now, lets create your equation...

y = 4/3x + 4

How would you do this problem

Drupady [299]

It would be helpful to draw out a diagram but I'll explain in words.

We start at 0, ground level.

Then up a 100 metre hill, so now we are at 100m.

It plunges down 72, so we take away 72 to get 28m.

Then it takes them back up 48m, so we add 48 to get 76m.

That means that they are 76m above from where they started, ground level.
