17ft 8in = 212 in so according to the options I would say go with 165 so A.

Find three solutions of the equation.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

3rd group of possible answers is the correct set

Step-by-step explanation:

Each of the three points in the 3rd line of possible answers is a solution of the given equation, as can be verified by substitution:

If x = -2, y = -8(-2) = +16

If x = 3, y = -8(3) = -24

If x = -4, y = -8(-4) = +32

2.16= with the repeating decimal being 6

Goshia [24]

Since the .16 is in the hundredths place, the fraction is 2 16/100, or 216/100

But if you need to simplify it it's 2 4/25, or 54/25

Find an equation of the line. Write the equation using function notation.

Gemiola [76]

The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (3,-3) is:

$y = -4x+9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

$4y=x-8$

We have to convert the given line in slope-intercept form to find the slope of the line

So,

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4y}{4} =\frac{x-8}{4}\\y = \frac{1}{4}x-\frac{8}{4}\\y = \frac{1}{4}x-2$

Let m1 be the slope of given line

Then

$m_1 = \frac{1}{4}\\$

Let m2 be the slope of line perpendicular to given line

As we know that produt of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1

$m_1.m_2 = -1\\\frac{1}{4} . m_2 = -1\\m_2 = -1*4\\m_2 = -4$

The slope intercept form of line is given by:

$y = m_2x+b$

Putting the value of slope

$y = -4x+b$

to find the value of b, putting (3,-3) in equation

$-3 = (-4)(3) + b\\-3 = -12 +b\\b = -3+12\\b = 9$

Putting the value of b in the equation

$y = -4x+9$

Hence,

The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (3,-3) is:

$y = -4x+9$
