Answer:
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
First use this equation: (y2 - y1) / (x2 -x1)
The y intercept is 14 so the slope is -10.
Answer:
- D(5, 4), E(14, 7), M(9.5, 5.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
As AD = 1/4AB and DE ║ AC, the ratio CE/CB = 1/4, or CE = 1/4CB
<u>Find the coordinates of D:</u>
- x = 1 + 1/4(17 - 1) = 1 + 4 = 5
- y = 5 + 1/4(1 - 5) = 5 - 1 = 4
<u>Find the coordinates of E:</u>
- x = 13 + 1/4(17 - 13) = 13 + 1 = 14
- y = 9 + 1/4(1 - 9) = 9 - 2 = 7
<u>Find the coordinates of the midpoint M of DE:</u>
- x = (5 + 14)/2 = 19/2 = 9.5
- y = (4 + 7)/2 = 11/2 = 5.5
Answer:
-4p=13
Step-by-step explanation:
-3p-7p=13
-4p=13
p=-13/4
Y = mx + c therefore
m = 1
c = -2
Answer:
42 child and 70 adult
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of adult tickets
c = number of child tickets
a+c = 112
2.25a + 1.75c = 231
Solve the first equation for a
a = 112-c
Substitute this into the second equation
2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231
Distribute
252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231
Combine like terms
252 -.5c = 231
Subtract 252 from each side
252-252 -.5c = 231-252
-.5c = -21
Divide each side by -.5
-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5
c = 42
Now can find a
a = 112-c
a = 112-42
a = 70
