Let
x be the price for a pound of ham
y the price for a pound of cheese
<span>1.3x +0.8y = 11.28 ....(1)
1.5x +1.2y = 14.76 ....(2)
Lets multiply (1) by -1.2
Lets multiply (2) by 0.8
-1.56x -0.96y = -13.536 .....(3)
</span> 1.2x + 0.96y = 11.808 .....(4)
If we add (3) and (4)
-0.36x = -1.728 ............> x = 4.8
We substitute in (1)
1.3(4.8) +0.8y = 11.28
y = 6.3
Price per pound of ham = x = 4.8
Price per pound of cheese = y = 6.3
Answer:
10+ (4 23 + 7) - 19
I don't know if the 4 is supposed to be multiple or subtract or to add but If it is add
Answer:
y= -3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Put -2x + 6y = -4 into slope-interceltp form
Take the negative reciprocal of the slope.
Use this reciprocal in point-slope form
and you have,
= y= -3x + 8
<em>(EDITED)</em> Steps:
2x+6y = -4
6y=2x - 4
y= 1/3x + 2/3
if two lines are perpendicular,
m1 * m2 + -1
1/3 * m2 = -1
m2 = -3
the line perpendicular to this line is
y = -3x + k ; k ∈ R
the line passes through the point (5,-7)
so,
-7 = -3. (5) +k
-7 = -15 + k
k = 8
∴the equation of a line that passes through the point (5,-7) and is perpendicular to the line -2x+6y=-4 is
y= -3x + 8
Hope this helps, have a nice day/night! :D
