Helen should of put 0 first, because if you're gonna divide, you need to put the product first, then one of the factoes.

So instead it should be 0÷(-7)=0

What equation of the line that has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (-2,-5)? Answer ASAP!!
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

<em>Given </em><em>points </em><em>are </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>,</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>slope </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>) </em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x1</em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>)</em>

<em>y </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>8</em>

<em>4x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>+</em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>4x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>+</em><em>1</em><em>3</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em><em> </em>

<em>y </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em>4</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>3</em>

<em>which </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>required </em><em>equation </em>

A square field has a perimeter of 44 meters.Find the length of one side of the field
riadik2000 [5.3K]
11 Meters because squares have 4 even sides. So you divide 44 by 4 and you get 11. This means every side is 11 meters long.

Farmer Bill sold potatoes at the farm market. He sold a quarter to the first person, 4/9 of what was left to the second person,
mel-nik [20]

Answer: 120 lb of potatoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the pounds of potatoes sold by farmer Bill      = X lb

Fractional part sold to the first person                    = 1/4

Therefore 1/4 of X                                                      = 1/4  x X

                                                                                    = X/4 lb of potatoes.

No of potatoes left for sale                                        = X - X/4

                                                                                    = ( 4x - x )/4

                                                                                    = 3x/4 lb.

Fractional part sold to the second person out of the reminder = 4/9

Therefore 4/9 of 3x/4                                                 = 4/9 x 3x/4

                                                                                    = x/3 lb of potatoes.

Amount of potatoes left for sale                               = 3x/4 - x/3

Resolve into fraction , we have                                 = (9x - 4x)/12, because 12 is the LCM.

                                                                                    = 5x/12

Third buyer bought 4/5 of the left over                    = 4/5 of 5x/12

                                                                                   =   x/3 lb of potatoes.

Amount  of potatoes left                                           =   5x/12 - x/3

Resolve in to fraction again  taking 12 as the LCM =   ( 5x - 4x )/12

                                                                                   = x/12 lb of potatoes .

Therefore, the left over was 10 lb .

To determine the value of x now which correspond to the amount of potatoes sold by Farmer Bill, we shall the equate the left to  x/12 = 10                                                                                                                

we now cross multiply to get the value of x                             x = 120 lb.

therefore the pound of potatoes sold by farmer Bill  = 120 lb.
