Answer:
957 - 249 = 708
The number that goes above the 5 is 4
Number above the 7 is 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Find two points on the graph that the line crosses through almost perfectly. It looks like (1,10) and (9,1) will do.
Use them to compute the slope:
m = (1 - 10) / (9 - 1)
= -9/8
Then set up the "point-slope form":
y - y0 = m * (x - x0)
You choose some point (x0, y0) that the line crosses through. We already know the line passes through (1,10) pretty well, so let's use that.
x0 = 1
y0 = 10
Now finish plugging into the equation:
y - 10 = -9/8 * (x - 1)
The above equation will work fine for an answer, but let's go a step further and solve for y.
y - 10 = -9/8x + 9/8
y = -9/8x + 9/8 + 10
y = -9/8x + 9/8 + 80/8
y = -9/8x + (9 + 80)/8
y = -9/8x + 89/8
Mike has 78 feet of fencing available for his garden, this is the perimeter (P) of the rectangle:
Perimeter: P=78 feet
The formula of Perimeter is:
P=2(W+L), where W is the width and L is the length, then:
P=78→2(W+L)=78
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
2(W+L)/2=78/2
W+L=39
If the shape is of a golden rectangle, we know:
L=1.6W
Replacing this above:
W+1.6W=39
Adding similar terms:
2.6W=39
Solving for W
2.6W/2.6=39/2.6
W=15 feet
L=1.6W=1.6(15)→L=24 feet
Answer: T<span>he dimensions of the garden are: Width=15 feet and Length=24 feet. </span>
