Answer:

slope = 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+y=9 you should be in slope int form--> y=-7x+9

then the line is perpendicular so

the slope is 1/7

Answer:

To find this, you must first of all make y the subject of the formula i.e

from the equation subtract 7x from both side

which implies:   7x - 7x +y = 9 - 7x

                                        y = 9 - 7x

Note: If M1 denote a slope and M2 another slope,for the two slopes to be perpendicular M1 = -1/M2

The slope in the above solution is -7 so the slope of a line perpendicular to it is -1 /-7 which is 1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Two students are reading a novel. Ashley reads 10 pages per day. Carly reads 8 pages per day, but she starts early and is alread
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The word per indicates the slope (m) of a linear function, y=mx +b.Using d for x and p for y , the equation representing Ashely's reading is p = 10d. Carly begins on page  40 which represents b, the y intercept of a linear function which indicates an initial amount.  So the equation representing Carly's reading is p=8d + 40.

The length of a rectangle is 5 ft less than three times the width, and the area of the rectangle is 28 ft2 . find the dimensions
Minchanka [31]
Let the width = w.
Then the length is 3w - 5.
The area = LW = 28

w(3w - 5) = 28

3w^2 - 5w = 28

3w^2 - 5w - 28 = 0

(3w + 7)(w - 4) = 0

3w + 7 = 0 or w - 4 = 0

w = -7/3 or w = 4

The width of a rectangle cannot be a negative number, so we discard w = -7/3.

The width is 4 ft.
The length is 3w - 5 = 3(4) - 5 = 12 - 5 = 7
The length is 7 ft

Answer: The dimensions are length 7 ft and width 4 ft.
