Answer:

point-slope form;

(y - 1) = -8(x+2)

slope-intercept form;

y = -8x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to determine the slope of the given line;

8y = x − 4

y = 1/8(x) - 1/2..... After dividing both sides by 8

The slope of the line is thus 1/8, the coefficient of x when the equation is written in slope-intercept form.

The required line is perpendicular to this given line which implies that the product of the slopes will be equal to -1. Let the slope of the required line be m;

m * 1/8 = -1

m = -8

The slope of the required line is thus -8. Using the given point,  (−2, 1), the equation of this line in point-slope form becomes;

(y - 1) = -8(x - -2)

(y - 1) = -8(x+2)

We make y the subject of the formula;

y = -8x - 16 + 1

y = -8x - 15

This is the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line.

Problem 3: Let x = price of bag of pretzels Let y = price of box of granola bars  
We have Lesley's purchase: 4x+2y=13.50
 And Landon's: 1x+5y=17.55 
 We can use the elimination method. Let's negate Landon's purchase by multiplying by -1. -1x-5y=-17.55 
 We add this four times to Lesley's purchase to eliminate the x variable.
 2y-20y=13.50-70.2
 -18y=-56.7
 y = $3.15 = Price of box of granola bars
 
 Plug back into Landon's purchase to solve for pretzels.
 x+5*3.15=17.55
 x+15.75=17.55
 x = $1.80 = price of bag of pretzels
  
 Problem 4.
 Let w = number of wood bats sold
 Let m = number of metal bats sold
 
 From sales information we have: w + m = 23
 24w+30m=606 
 Substitution works well here. Solve for w in the first equation, w = 23 - m, and plug this into the second. 
 24*(23-m)+30m=606
 552-24m+30m=606
 6m=54
 m=9 = number of metal bats sold
 Therefore since w = 23-m, w = 23-9 = 14. 14 wooden bats were sold.

\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{12}


We know that:


\frac{a}{b} + \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a.d + b.c}{bd}


So,


\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{12} = \frac{1.12+6.1}{6.12}

\frac{12+6}{72}

\frac{18}{72}

\frac{9}{36}

\frac{3}{12}

\frac{1}{4}
