Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the missing sides measurement.
x+x+28=52
combine like terms
2x + 28 = 52
subtract 28 from both sides
2x + 28 = 52
- 28 - 28
2x = 24
divide both sides by 2
x = 12
plug it back in
one leg is 12 inches
the other leg is 40 inches
To calculate the slope you need to do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1). So you would get:
(17-12)/(4-9)
5/-5
=-1
Hope this helps.
Answer:
slope = 3
y-intercept = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
m = slope; b = y-intercept
y = 3x - 5
y = 3x + (-5)
m = 3 = slope
b = -5 = y-intercept
Y = -3(2) + 11
y = -6 + 11
y = 5
Answer is a) y = -3x + 11 , when x is 2 y is 5
