Answer:

y=-5x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets find the midpoint of the points (-5,3) and (5,5).

(0,4) is the midpoint by the midpoint formula.

Next we find the slope of the 2 points.

2/10 or 1/5

To find the perpendicular bisector, we need to find the negative reciprocal of the slope, which is -5x. However, we want the line to pass through (0,4), so we make the y-intercept 4.

Therfore, the answer is y=-5x+4

KonstantinChe [14]

Volume of a rectangular prism = l × w × h.

In this case,

V = 270 cubic feet

l = 15 feet

w = 4 ft

h = ?

Plug our values into the volume formula.

270 cubic feet = 15 feet × 4 feet × h.

Simplify the right side

270 = 60 × h.

Divide each side by 60.

4.5 = h

The height is 4.5 feet.

aleksley [76]

Answer:

39

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of child tickets sold.

Cost of x child tickets is x * 5.30 = 5.3x.

"three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold"

Number of adult tickets sold: 3x

Cost of 3x adult tickets is 3x * 8.40 = 25.2x

Cost of all tickets is 5.3x + 25.2x = 30.5x

Cost of all tickets is $1189.50

30.5x = 1189.5

x = 1189.5/30.5

x = 39
