The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -4. 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, 1) and (2, -9) so the slope becomes:

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 4

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r²h and the surface area is 2(π r²) + 2π rh.

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 8 x 9
a = 72

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.

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.

-8x + 9 > 8 + 3x
-8x > 8 + 3x - 9
-8x - 3x > 8 - 9
-11x > -1
x > \( \frac{-1}{-11} \)
x > \(\frac{1}{11}\)
