Answer:

- 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Write the equation in slope-intercept form.

4x - 8y = 64

-8y = -4x +64

y = 1/2 x - 8

slope of this line = 1/2

2) For perpendicular line the slope is negative reciprocal.

So, slope for perpendicular line is equal -2.

1. JP Construction is building a rectangular children's wading pool for the local community center. The pool will be 4.5 meters

Bond [772]

Answer:

$x\leq 1.78$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Width of pool, b=4.5 m

We have to find the inequality which represents the possible lengths of the wading pool.

Let x be the length of wading pool

We know that

Area of rectangle= $length\times breadth$

According to question

Using the formula

$4.5x\leq 8$

Divide by 4.5 on both sides we get

$x\leq\frac{8}{4.5}$

$x\leq 1.78$

Conor runs at a constant rate, it takes 34 minutes to run 4 miles . Write the linear equation in two variables that represents t

Bad White [126]

Answer:

4x+y=34

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equations can be written in 3 forms:

slope-intercept form

standard form

point-slope form

standard form's formula is ax+by=c,

now sub in 34 for c and 4 for a

4x+by=34

we can put in 1 for b since there is no other integers

4x+y=34
