put the equation 2x - y = 16 in the form of y = mx + c
2x - y = 16
2x = 16 + y
y = 2x - 16
the slope of this line is 2. the slope of a line perpendicular to it would be the negative reciprocal of 2. in other words, it would multiply with 2 to give -1.
you can form this equation with that info
2x = -1
x = -1/2
OR
you can flip and change the sign (numerator) of 2/1
2/1
= -1/2
Triangle WYZ and triangle TWY are congruent, therefore WZ = TW
WZ = TW
3x - 5 = 2x
3x - 2x = 5
x = 5
The value of x is 5
Find area of room
aera=legnth wtimes width
in a square, legnth=width
aera=legnth^2
legnth=14 feet
convert o inches
14*12=168 inches
area=168^2=28224 square inches
how many tiles will cover all of floor?
aka
how many 192 in^2 is at least 28224 (at least, because we need to cover the whole floor without gaps)
192x<u>></u>28224
divide both sides by 192
x<u>></u>147
147 is the number of tiles we need
