Can someone please help me with math

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to do is make a single triangle from the problem. That triangle can be BDH. We do still need the line BE, although that can wait.

Now find the last angle of the triangle. The sum of angles of a triangle always equal 180, so we can easuly find the missing angle.

So the missing angle is 109°. Now we can find the value of x.

We can use that angle because it sits right next to x on the same line. A line is 180° at any node as long as the line continues straight, so we simply subtract the angle we just found to find x.

Now we know x is 71

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

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

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

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

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form
