Write an equation of a line thru (3,-1) and (-1,-7)

-1 - (-7) over 3 - (-1) = M

-1 + 7 over 3 + 1 = M

6 over 4 = M

6/4 = M

3/2 = M

Slope form M=y2-y1/x2-x2 M= -7 -(-1)/-1-3 M= -6/-4 M=3/2  So 3/2 is your slope   Now  use one if the pair points (3,-1) and slope to find b. -1=2/3(3)+b -1=2+b -1-2=b -3=b  Y=2/3x-3

the sum of all the angles in a triangle are equal to 180

so you can add   the 3 given angles together to equal 180:

5y + 2y + 2y = 180

or since all three angles have the same letter, combine the 3 angles to equal 180:

9y = 180

.
