Answer:
51 units2
Step-by-step explanation:
42 + 9 = 51 units2
Basically, you have to find the line through (-3, 1) that is perpendicular to the line 6x + y = 9 and then find where the two lines intersect. Dropping a perpendicular from the point to the line is the shortest distance from the point to the line.
6x + y = 9
y = -6x + 9
slope is -6
perpendicular would have slope 1/6
(y - 1) = (1/6) (x + 3)
y - 1 = (1/6) x + (1/2)
multiplying both sides by 6
6y - 6 = x + 3
x - 6y = -9
Where do these two lines intersect?
From above we know given equation is y = -6x + 9
Plugging into other equation
x - 6(-6x + 9) = -9
x + 36x - 54 = -9
37 x = 45
x = 45/37
y = -6(45/37) + 9
y = -270/37 + (333/37)
y = 63/37
point is (45/37, 63/37)
Answer:
9 3/8 ounces of dog food
Step-by-step explanation:
1 cup = 1 7/8 ounces
1 7/8 + 1 7/8 = 2 14/8 = 3 6/8
3 6/8 + 1 7/8 = 4 13/8 = 5 5/8
5 5/8 + 1 7/8 = 6 12/8 = 7 4/8
7 4/8 + 1 7/8 = 8 11/8 = 9 3/8
Answer: They can order from 0 to 449 bars, but no more.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The school band is ordering health bars to sell for a fundraiser. The company that sells the bars charges $0.40 per bar plus $20.00 for shipping regardless of the size of the order. The band must spend less than $200.00 on bars for the fundraiser.
The inequality below relates x, the number of bars that could be ordered, with the shipping costs and their spending requirements.

To solve for x, subtract 20 on both sides, we get

Divide 0.40 on both sides, we get
......... → the number of bars that could be ordered, with the shipping costs and their spending requirements must less than 450.
Thus, they can order from 0 to 449 bars, but no more.
