A) the length on the top is 2ft. You were supposed to subtract 11ft from 9ft. The length on the bottom is 17. You get that by adding 5ft and 12ft
b) then you add up all the lengths together.
2+5+12+11+9+17= 56ft

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=-2/7x + 9 and that passes through the point (-4,6) [FP]

siniylev [52]

Answer:

$y=(7/2)x+20$

Step-by-step explanation:

SInce the gradient of the first line is $-2/7$ then the gradien of the perpendicular line is $7/2$.

Therefore by the point slope formula the line that we are looking for is

$y-6=(7/2)(x+4)$

$y=(7/2)x + 20$

A 5000 seat theater has tickets for sale at 26 and 40. How many tickets should be sold at each price for a sellout performance t

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The number of tickets for sale at $26 should be 3300

The number of tickets for sale at $40 should be 1700

Step-by-step explanation:

Use 2 equations to represent the modifiers within the problem:

$5000 = a + b \\ 153800 = 26a + 40b$

Now you want to find the point at which the variables are changed to make both equations correct, this can be done by graphing and finding the intersection of both lines.

$5000 = 3300 + 1700 \\ 153800 = 26(3300) + 40(1700)$
