100 muffins, and 2 in each packages. Therefore, there are 50 packages. However, at the end, there are 12 left, so there must have been 6 packages left. (12/2) 50-6=44. 44*2=88 so 88 muffins were bought.
The given equation is:
y = -10x + 1
Slope of this equation = -10
New line will be perpendicular to this line, so slope of new line = 1/10
So, we are to find the equation of a line with slope 1/10 and passing through (5,7). Using the point slope form we can write
y - 7 = 1/10 ( x - 5)
y = x/10 -1/2 + 7
y = x/10 + 13/2
⇒
x/10 - y = -13/2
So option C gives the correct equation of the new line
Answer:
x = 1 , 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- The given equation is as follows:
y = x^2 - 8x + 7
- We can solve the above equation by either making factors or by using Quadratic formula.
Factor Approach:
- Using the constant "7" at the end of the quadratic equation we will determine two integer multiples such that their additions/subtraction results in "-8".
- So the only factor of "7" are:
7 x 1 = 7
-7 x -1 = 7
- We see that addition/subtraction of first (7 , 1 ) does not results in "-8", However, the sum of ( -1 , -7 ) = -1 - 7 = -8. So the correct factors are ( -1 , -7 ). So we replace "-8x" with our factors "-1x" and "-7x":
x^2 -x -7x + 7 = 0
- Take common multiples out of pair of two terms:
x*(x-1) -7*(x-1) = 0
(x-7)*(x-1) = 0
- So we equate each term in bracket with "0" and evaluate the values of x:
(x-7) = 0 , x = 7
(x-1) = 0 , x = 1
- So the solution to the quadratic equation is:
x = 1 , 7
