Write the equation of a line that passes through the points (-2, -8) and (2, -6).

y = x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 6)

m = = = , thus

y = x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (2, - 6), then

- 6 = 1 + c ⇒ c = - 6 - 1 = - 7

y = x - 7 ← equation of line

the answer is 45 i just did it on oddesy ware

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.
