Well the total cost of the washing machine is 504. so that is it u can even use a calculator
Parallel lines will have the same slope
y - y1 = m(x - 1)
slope(m) = 1/4
(5,5)...x1 = 5 and y1 = 5
now we sub
y - 5 = 1/4(x - 5) <==== ur parallel line
==================
perpendiculr lines will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, u flip the number and change the sign. So the negative reciprocal of 1/4 is -4....see how I flipped 1/4 and made it 4/1...then changed the sign making it -4/1 or just -4. That will be ur slope of the perpendicular line.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = -4
(5,5)...x1 = 5 and y1 = 5
now we sub
y - 5 = -4(x - 5) <=== ur perpendicular line
It seems that the y-intercept is 1, so you will be adding 1 to the equation. When you make a chart, you find that each number grows by 1 as well.
From this information, you will find that the answer is
y = x + 1
Assuming that both triangles are an exact copy of one another, it is safe to assume that 3y-7 is equal to 41. Set up an equation
3y-7=41
Add 7 to both sides
3y=48
Divide both sides by 3
y=16
Now to find PN.
Based on what we know, we can assume that MP = PN. Let's make some equations!
MP = 17x-8 PN = 11x+4
17x-8 = 11x+4
Subtract 11x from both sides
6x-8 = 4
Add 8 to both sides
6x = 12
Divide by 2
x=2
Substitute 2 in for x in the equation for PN
11(2)+4
Multiply 11 by 2
22+4 = 26
PN = 26
