Answer:

15x - y = - 126

Step-by-step explanation:

will make it simple and short

first we need to find the slope (m) first in order to get the equation

given: (-8,6) (-9,-9)

y2 - y1 -9 - 6

Slope = m = ----------- = ------------------ = 15

-x2 - x1 -9 - (-8)

so the equation of the line using point (-8,6) and slope 15 is y - 6 = 15( x + 8)

y - 6 = 15x + 120

using the form equation Ax + By = C, 15x - y = -120-6

therefore... 15x - y = - 126 <em>is the answer</em>

Arisa [49]

The problem statement gives you the relationship between their speeds, and it gives you information you can use to find their total speed. You solve this by finding the total speed, then the proportion of that belonging to Bill.

The total speed is (120 mi)/(3 h) = 40 mi/h.

The speed ratio is ...

... Bill : Joe = 3 : 1

so the speed ratio Bill : Total is ...

... 3 : (3+1) = 3:4.

Bill's speed is (3/4)×(40 mi/h) = 30 mi/h.

Answer:

Therefore the amount in the 4% savings account = $550

Step-by-step explanation:

i) the total amount = $1500

ii) let the amount placed in the 4% interest savings account = x

iii) let the amount placed in the 5% interest savings account = y

iv) therefore fro i) we can say x + y = 1500

v) the total interest gained = $69.5

vi) therefore we can write 0.04x + 0.05y = 69.50

vii) multiplying equation vi) with 100 we get 4x + 5y = 6950

viii) Multiplying the equation in iv) by 5 we get 5x + 5y = 7500

ix) Subtracting equation in vii) from equation in viii) we get x = $550

x) Therefore the amount in the 4% savings account = $550

Without using a trigonometric ratio, find the distance from the ship to the buoy, B. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of

alexdok [17]

Without using the trigonometry ratio, we can find the distance between the ship and the buoy by:

the distance between City and Lemont SUBTRACT the vertical distance between City and the point parallel to the Ship

The distance between the City and Lemont can be worked out using the Sin rule
$\frac{57.8}{sin(36)}= \frac{City-Lemont}{sin(92)}$
$City-Lemont= \frac{57.9sin(92)}{sin(36)} = 98.27.....$ ≈98.3

The vertical distance between the City and the point parallel to the ship can be worked out using the Pythagoras theorem
$\sqrt{57.8^{2}- 44.6^{2} } =36.765...$ ≈36.8

The distance between the ship and the Buoy is given:
$98.3-36.8=61.5$ miles
