<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{29}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to rearrange the equation to make it y = mx + c

4x - y = 3

y + 3 = 4x

y = 4x -3

So the slope of the line is 4.

The slope of a line perpendicular to an equation is:

\frac{-1}{gradient}

So the slope of the perpendicular line is:

\frac{-1}{4} = -0.25

Now to find the equation of a line you can use the following equation:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

Where y₁ is the y-coordinate, x₁ is the x-coordinate and m is the gradient. Plug the values in:

y₁ = 6

x₁ = -5

m = \frac{-1}{4}

y - 6 = \frac{-1}{4}(x - - 5)

To get rid of the fraction we need to multiply the whole equation by 4:

4y - 24 = -1(x - - 5)

The two negatives cancel out:

4y - 24 = -1(x + 5)

Multiply the brackets out:

4y - 24 = -x + 5

Now, to rearrange the formula back into y = mx + c

Move the -24 over to the other side making it a +24:

4y = 2x + 5 + 24

4y = 2x + 29

Divide everything by 4:

y = \frac{2}{4}x + \frac{29}{4}

y = \frac{1}{2}x + \frac{29}{4}

Complete the pairs of corresponding parts if ABD congruent to EFC.
Alchen [17]
Remember the notation..

When you have a triangle called ABD, the angles may be called in theses equivalent ways>

angle A is equivalent to ∠ DAB
angle B is equivalent to ∠ ABD
angle D is equivalen to ∠ BDA

Then given that the two triangles are congruent, you can say an

angle B = angle F = ∠ EFC

So the answer is the last option of the list.

(Set up and solve the system, then answer the associated question)
Dimas [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • red division: 6 teams
  • blue division: 5 teams

Step-by-step explanation:

We can let r and b represent the numbers of teams in the red and blue divisions, respectively. The total number of goals scored in each division will be the average for that division times the number of teams in that division.

  r - b = 1 . . . . . . there is 1 more red team than blue

  4.5r +4.2b = 48 . . . . . . total goals scored per week

__

Solving by substitution, we have ...

  r = b +1

  4.5(b +1) +4.2b = 48 . . . . substitute for r

  8.7b +4.5 = 48 . . . . . . . . simplify

  8.7b = 43.5 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4.5

  b = 43.5/8.7 = 5 . . . . . divide by 8.7

  r = b +1 = 6 . . . . . . . . . find r

There are 6 red teams and 5 blue teams.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The basic idea is that you make an equation for each relation given in the problem statement. For a problem like this, you do need to have an understanding of how the average number of goals would be calculated and how that relates to the total goals.
