Answer:
The answer is no solution.
Step-by-step explanation: First, you would add + 12 to both sides of the equation so that you would have 5c + 21 = 5c. Then, you would subtract 5c from both sides of the equation. This would leave you with 21 = 0. Since this is not true, the equation would have no solution.
Answer: y=-7x + 37
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines will have the same slope but different y-intercepts so again we can use the coordinates to determine the y intercept of the new equation.
So we know that the slope intercept formula is y=mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept so we will input the x and y coordinates to solve for b.
9 = -7(4) + b
9 = -28 + b
+28 +28
b = 37
The equation will be y= -7x + 37
You would divide the total area by the length.
8 3/4 divided by 3 1/2
35/4 / 7/2
35/4 * 2/7 = 70/28 =2 1/2 ft
