Given that,

Shelley's pet food store sold one customer 5 peanut butter biscuits for $3. She sold another customer 7 beef treats for $4.20.

For peanut, the cost is ratio is

\dfrac{5}{3}

For beef, the ratio is

\dfrac{7}{4.2}

If we take cross product of these items,

\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{7}{4.2}\\\\5\times 4.2=3\times 7\\\\21=21

It implies, that the sale is in true proportion. From the cross product, we find that it is equal.

Write the equation of the line that contains the point (−2, -9) and is 4) Parallel to y = 8x + 7 5) Perpendicular to y = 8x + 7
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

a. y = 8x + 7

b. 8y = -x-74

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write the equation of a line which is parallel to y = 8x + 7 and passes through the given point

Since the line we want to write the equation is parallel to y = 8x + 7, it means that they have the same slope

Mathematically we can write the equation of a line as y = mx + c where m is the slope. Comparing this with y = 8x + 7, our slope is therefore 8

Now, the slope of our new line is also 8

We now make use of the point slope method to write the equation

Mathematically the point slope method is;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where our (x1,y1) = (-2,-9)

y-(-9) = 8(x -(-2))

y + 9 = 8(x + 2)

y + 9 = 8x + 16

y = 8x + 16-9

y = 8x + 7

For the second line, it is perpendicular to y = 8x + 7

Here too, we have the slope as 8

Now since they are perpendicular, it means that the product of the slopes is equal to -1

m1 * m2 = -1

8 * m2 = -1

m2 = -1/8

Now;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

our point still remains same (-2,-9)

y-(-9) = -1/8 (x -(-2))

y + 9 = -1/8(x + 2)

8(y + 9) = -1(x + 2)

8y + 72 = -x -2

8y = -x -2-72

8y = -x-74

X^2 + 18x + c = 25 +c
svet-max [94.6K]
Rearrange to: x^2 + 18x - 25 = 0
Then factorise (I like to do it by completing the square):
(x + 9)^2 -81 -25 = 0
(x + 9)^2 = 106
x + 9 = sqrt(106)
The sol'ns are:
x = -9 + and - sqrt(106)

Graph the linear equations. Find three points that solve the equation -3x + 2y= 2
fredd [130]

Answer:

(0,1) , (2,4) , (4,7)

Explanation:

convert the equation into slope-intercept form (this would be y=3/2x+1)

now plug in random numbers for x and solve for y by multiplying them by 3/2 and adding 1.
