Use this to solve:

4/5 = 16/x

Since these are equivalent fractions;

you can divide 16 by 4

then multiply by 5

that should give you the original price of the bean bag chair!

Pleaseeee help! I'm really confused.
seropon [69]
He will be making a right triangle with the legs being 24 x 45. The diagonal will be the hypotenuse of the triangle. To find the amount of fencing we need the perimeter of the triangle.
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
24^2 + 45^2 = c^2
576 + 2025 = c^2
2601 = c^2
sqrt 2601 = c
c = 51
Adding the three lengths the total fencing needed is
51+24+45=120 meters

34. For the following exercises, given each set of information, find a linear equation satisfying the conditions, if possible.
skad [1K]

Answer:

The linear equation for the line which passes through the points given as (-1,4) and (5,2), is written in the point-slope form as $y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{13}{3}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

A condition is given that a line passes through the points whose coordinates are (-1,4) and (5,2).

It is asked to find the linear equation which satisfies the given condition.

Step 1 of 3

Determine the slope of the line.

The points through which the line passes are given as (-1,4) and (5,2). Next, the formula for the slope is given as,

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Substitute 2&4 for $y_{2}$ and $y_{1}$ respectively, and $5 \&-1$ for $x_{2}$ and $x_{1}$ respectively in the above formula. Then simplify to get the slope as follows,

m=\frac{2-4}{5-(-1)}$\\ $m=\frac{-2}{6}$\\ $m=-\frac{1}{3}$

Step 2 of 3

Write the linear equation in point-slope form.

A linear equation in point slope form is given as,

$y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

Substitute $-\frac{1}{3}$ for m,-1 for $x_{1}$, and 4 for $y_{1}$ in the above equation and simplify using the distributive property as follows,

y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x-(-1))$\\ $y-4=-\frac{1}{3}(x+1)$\\ $y-4=-\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}$

Step 3 of 3

Simplify the equation further.

Add 4 on each side of the equation $y-4=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}$, and simplify as follows,

y-4+4=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{3}+4$\\ $y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1+12}{3}$\\ $y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{13}{3}$

This is the required linear equation.
