First, put the equation of the line giveninto slope-intercept form by solving fory. You get y = 2x +5, so the slope is –2.Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes, so the slope of theline we want to find is 1/2. answer y=-1/2
Given:
Cost to build a bookshelf = $20
Cost to build a table = $45
Amount available to spend = $600
Let x = number of bookshelves built.
Let y = number of tables built.
The total number of bookshelves and tables = 18.
Therefore
x + y = 18.
That is,
y = 18 - x (1)
The total amount available to build x bookshelves and y tables = $600. Therefore
20x + 45y = 600
That is (dividing through by 5),
4x + 9y = 120 (2)
Substitute (1) into (2).
4x + 9(18 - x) = 120
4x + 162 - 9x = 120
-5x = -42
x = 8.4
From (1),obtain
y = 18 - 8.4 = 9.6
Because we cannot have fractional bookshelves and tables, we shall test values of x=8, 9 and y=9,10 for profit
Note: The profit is $60 per bookshelf and $100 per table.
If x = 8, then y = 18-8 = 10.
The profit = 8*60 + 10*100 = $1480
If x = 9, then y = 18-9 = 9.
The profit = 9*60 + 9*100 = $1440
The choice of 8 bookshelves and 10 tables is more profitable.
Answer: 8 bookshelves and 10 tables.
Answer:
Seven one dollar bills and eight five dollar bills.
Step-by-step explanation:
8 + 7 = 15 bills
8 x 5 = $40
7 x 1 = $7
40 + 7 = $47
47 dollars and 15 bills.
Answer: The equation for line b is 
The equation for line t is 
The attachment shows the original line in green, the parallel line b in red, and the perpendicular line t in blue.
Step-by-step explanation: Use slope intercept form, y = mx + b
The given coordinate, (0,5) is on the y-axis, so 5 will be the y-intercept of the equation. Keep the slope of the original equation and substitute the new value for "b"
To write the equation for line t
Both lines share the y-intercept, (0,5) so the "b" term will be the same. The slope of a perpendicular line is the reciprocal of the original slope with the opposite sign.
So invert 3/4 to become 4/3 and change the negative sign to positive.
The resulting equation is y = 4x/3 + 5
