Which answer choice correctly identifies the missing information in the problem? Joey and Kirk are in the 6th grade. Kirk is 5 f
user100 [1]

Answer:Kirk is taller than Joey by 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Kirk's height is given as  =5 feet 4 inches tall.

Joey's  height 4 feet 8 inches tall

Difference in height = 5 feet 4 inches

                                    - 4 feet   8 inches

                                 =

Step 2

Bear in mind that 12 inches = 1 feet . Now,8 cannot be subtracted from 4 , so we borrow 1 feet from 5feet,  which is equivalent to 12 inches and add to inches  so it becomes

4 feet  (12+4)inches     =                   4 feet     16inches

- 4 feet   8 inches                             - 4 feet   8 inches

                                                     =                   8 inches

Therefore Kirk is taller than Joey by 8 inches

Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point slope form and general form.
S_A_V [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope form is

y - y1 = a(x - x1)

with a being the slope, and (x1,y1) being a point on the line.

the general form is

y = ax + b

a is again the slope. and b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).

the slope is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change".

so, we need to find the slope of the original line :

x - 7y - 9 = 0

x - 9 = 7y

y = 1/7 x - 9/7

so, the original slope is 1/7.

the perpendicular slope turns the original slope upside-down and flips the sign.

so, it is

-7/1 = -7

the point slope form is

y - -4 = -7(x - 6)

y + 4 = -7(x - 6)

for the standard form we only need to do the multiplications and transform the equation into the above form :

y + 4 = -7(x - 6)

y + 4 = -7x + 42

y = -7x + 38
