Answer: Negative 1 The slope of parallel lines is the same.
The attachment shows two such lines, given coordinates labeled.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the slope of the line passing through the given points.
rise/run
Rise is the difference in y-values 7-(-5) = 12
Run is the difference between x-values -5 - 7 = - 12
The Slope is 12/-12 simplify:
slope = -1
Answer:
About 4.123
Step-by-step explanation:
The horizontal distance between the two points is 5-1 = 4 units. the vertical distance is 3-2=1 unit. Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find that the length is:
Answer:
- 12 ft parallel to the river
- 6 ft perpendicular to the river
Step-by-step explanation:
The least fence is used when half the total fence is parallel to the river. That is, the shape of the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide.
72 = W(2W)
36 = W²
6 = W . . . . . . the width perpendicular to the river
12 = 2W . . . . the length parallel to the river
_____
<em>Development of this relation</em>
Let T represent the total length of the fence for some area A. Then if x is the length along the river, the width is y=(T-x)/2, and the area is ...
A = xy = x(T -x)/2
Note that the equation for area is that of a parabola with zeros at x=0 and at x=T. That is, for some fence length T, the area will be a maximum at the vertex of this parabola. That vertex is located halfway between the zeros, at ...
x = (0 +T)/2 = T/2
The corresponding area width (y) is ...
y = (T -T/2)/2 = T/4
Equivalently, the fence length T will be a minimum for some area A when x=T/2 and y=T/4. This is the result we used above.
A) x/6=9
Subtract 6 from both sides, x=3
B) x/-4=-3
Add 4 to both sides, x=1
C) x/-5=7
Add 5 to both sides, x=12
