Answer: 0:15,000 1:13,275 2:11,748.375

Step-by-step explanation: .885 times the original price (15000) because 11.5% minus 100% equals 88.5%. Just do this for each new one and you can get any answer for however many years after you need.

Which equation represents the line that is perpendicular to and passes through (-40,20)?

emmasim [6.3K]

The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is: y = -5/4x - 30.

<h3>What is the Equation of Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

The slope values of two perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of each other.

Given that the line is perpendicular to y = 4/5x+23, the slope of y = 4/5x+23 is 4/5. Negative reciprocal of 4/5 is -5/4.

Therefore, the line that is perpendicular to it would have a slope (m) of -5/4.

Plug in m = -5/4 and (x, y) = (-40, 20) into y = mx + b to find b:

20 = -5/4(-40) + b

20 = 50 + b

20 - 50 = b

b = -30

Substitute m = -5/4 and b = -30 into y = mx + b:

y = -5/4x - 30

The equation of the perpendicular line is: y = -5/4x - 30.

A carpenter is assigned the job of expanding a rectangular deck where the width is one-fourth the length. The length of the deck

leva [86]

Let the width be W, then the length is 4W (since the width is 1/4 the length)

The area of the original deck is $W*4W=4W^{2}$

The dimensions of the new deck are :

length = 4W+6
width=W+2

so the area of the new deck is :

$(4W+6)(W+2)= 4W^{2}+8W+6W+12= 4W^{2}+14W+12$

"<span>the area of the new rectangular deck is 68 ft2 larger than the area of the original deck</span>" means that we write the equation:

$4W^{2}+14W+12=68+4W^{2}$

$14W+12=68$

$14W=68-12=56$

$W= \frac{56}{14}= 4$

the length is $4W=4*4=16$ ft

Answer: width: 4, length: 16
