Answer:

Below in bold letters.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. y = 3x - 1.

The equation of the perpendicular line will have slope -1/ 3.

So we have the equation y - y1 = -1/3(x - x1)  where (x1, y1) is a point on this perpendicular line.

As the line passes through (0,0):

y - 0 = 1/3(x - 0)

y = -1/3x is the required equation.

If  x,4 is on the line then x  is found by substituting for y:

4 = -1/3 x

x = 4 / -1/3

x = 4*-3 = -12.

b. y = 1/4x + 2

By the same method as in part a:

the equation is y = -4x.

x = 4 / -4 = -1.

sdas [7]

Answer:

135 square ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, you need to find the area of this rectangle. Area is always base x height, or in this case, length x width. Now you multply your length, 15', by your width, 9', to get your answer, 135 square feet. When you multiply two measurments of the same unit together, you get square (units), which simply means that you multiplied two of the same unit of measurment together.

Solve the system of equations using elimination. SHOW WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
irinina [24]

q= 6

r= 7

work--

Multiply 1st column by -2:

-30q+8r=-124

5q+8r=86

Subtract 2nd column from the first column:

-35q= -210

Solve for q:

q=6

Subtract q=6 by any of the two equations, so:

-30q+8r=-124

-30*6+8r=-124

Solve for r:

r=7
