Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The gradient is the ratio of "rise" to "run". Here, it appears the line crosses the y-axis at y = -1. It appears that it also crosses the grid intersection at (1, 2). This represents a "rise" (change in y) of (2 -(-1)) = 3, for a "run" (change in x) of (1 -0) = 1. Then the gradient is ...
m = rise/run = 3/1 = 3
The gradient of the graph is 3.
Opposite angles are equal so the equation is
x + 71 = 108 (A)
We have to set up 2 different equations if we are to solve for 2 unknowns. The first equation is x = y + 4. One number (x) is (=) 4 more than another (y + 4). Since we have determined that x is larger (cuz it's 4 more than y), when we set up their difference, we are going to subtract y from x cuz x is bigger. The second equation then is

. In our first equation we said that x = y + 4, so let's sub that value in for x in the second equation:

. Expand that binomial to get

. Of course the y squared terms cancel each other out leaving us with 8y + 16 = 64. Solving for y we get that y = 6. Subbing 6 in for y in our first equation, x = 6 + 4 tells us that x = 10. Yay!
