Answer:

\huge\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1\to x+4y=-4}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{Let}\ k:y=m_1x+b_1;\ l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ ||\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\==========================\\\\\text{We have}\ x+4y=-6.\\\text{Convert to the slope-intercept form:}\\\\x+4y=-6\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\4y=-x-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\y=\dfrac{-x}{4}-\dfrac{6}{4}\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-\dfrac{3}{2}\to m_1=-\dfrac{1}{4}

\text{Lines are to be parallel. Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{4}.\\\\\text{We initially have the form equation}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+b.\\\\\text{The line passes through the point}\ (9,\ -3).\\\\\text{Substitute the coordinates of the point to the equation of a line:}\\\\x=9,\ y=-3\\\\-3=-\dfrac{1}{4}(9)+b\\\\-3=-\dfrac{9}{4}+b\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{9}{4}\ \text{to both sides}\\\\-\dfrac{12}{4}+\dfrac{9}{4}=b\to b=-\dfrac{3}{4}

\text{Lines are to be parallel. Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{4}.\\\\\text{We initially have the form equation}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+b.\\\\\text{The line passes through the point}\ (8,\ -3).\\\\\text{Substitute the coordinates of the point to the equation of a line:}

x=8,\ y=-3\\\\-3=-\dfrac{1}{4}(8)+b\\\\-3=-2+b\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\-1=b\to b=-1

\text{Therefore the equation is:}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1.\\\\\text{Convert to the standard form}\ Ax+By=C:\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\4y=-x-4\qquad\text{add}\ x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x+4y=-4

Matt is cutting quilt squares measuring 3 inches on each side. He wants to use them to make a rectangular wall hanging measuring
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Matt will need 10176  square quilts to cover the wall

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this perfectly, we will have to first convert everything to the same unit.

dimensions of the quilt squares = 3 inches

Length of the wall = 1 yard = 36 inches

Breadth of the wall = 212 feet = 2544 inches.

The next step, is to find the area of the wall that Matt is covering.

Area of wall = length X breadth = 36 X 2544 = 91584in ^{2}

We will also find the area of the square quilts. This is given as length X length = 3^{2}=9 in^{2}

to get the number of square quilts that will cover that area, we will have to divide the area of the wall by the area of the quilts

= 91584 /9 = 10176 quilts

Matt will need 10176 quilts to cover the wall
