y = mx + b, where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.

Since you are not given the y-intercept, you have to solve for it through the equation, y = (4/5)x (which is the slope you are given) + b, and replace x and y with values given, which are (-5,-3)

y = (4/5)x + b

-3 = (4/5)(-5) + b

-3 = -4 + b

1 = b


Then replace b in the first equation to get the answer

y = (4/5)x + 1

15 : 18 : 9
5 : 6 : 3

The budget needs to be divided into 5+6+3 = 14 parts
The budget for one part is 22000/14

The budget for department B is \frac{22000}{14}*6=9428.571428

A surveyor is conducting measures to see how wide a road is
drek231 [11]

Answer:

D) 45 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are shown below.

Given:

BC = 60 ft, CD = 24 ft and DE = 18 ft.

Since, the two triangles are similar, their corresponding sides are in proportion.

So, \frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{CD}=\frac{AC}{CE}

Now, consider the proportion of sides,

\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{CD}\\AB=\frac{BC}{CD}\times DE\\AB=\frac{60}{24}\times 18\\AB=\frac{60\times 18}{24}=45\ ft

Therefore, the distance between A and B is 45 ft.
