The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 4) and (2, 0) so the slope becomes:

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

7b + 4 > 1 + 3b
7b > 1 + 3b - 4
7b - 3b > 1 - 4
4b > -3
b > \( \frac{-3}{4} \)
b > -\(\frac{3}{4}\)

The first step to solve a quadratic expression that's not set to zero is to solve the equation so that it is set to zero:

y² + 9y - 6 = 5y - 1
y² + 9y - 6 + 1 = 5y
y² + 9y - 5y - 5 = 0
y² + 4y - 5 = 0

Next, factor the quadratic equation:

y² + 4y - 5 = 0
(y - 1)(y + 5) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (y - 1) or (y + 5) must equal zero:

If (y - 1) = 0, y must equal 1
If (y + 5) = 0, y must equal -5

So the solution is that y = 1 or -5

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
