Answer:

y=-x+r

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The tangency point on the x-axis is  (r,0)

The tangency point on the y-axis is  (0,r)

Find the slope of the line containing the points of tangency

m=\frac{0-r}{r-0}=-1

Remember that the equation of the line into slope intercept form is equal to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-coordinate of the y-intercept

In this problem we have

m=-1

b=r

substitute

y=-x+r

Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

  6600 yd²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the scale drawing is ...

  (5.5 in)(3 in) = 16.5 in²

Each square inch represents an area of the field that is ...

  (20 yd)×(20 yd) = 400 yd² . . . . per square inch of drawing

Then the scale drawing represents a field with an area of ...

  (16.5 in²)×(400 yd²/in²) = 6600 yd²

Solve for x 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to solve for the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )

we will first of all open the brackets and then evaluate for the value of x by combining the like terms.

from 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )

6x -12 = 8x -72

combine the like terms

6x - 12 + 72 = 8x

-12 + 72 = 8x -6x

60 = 2x

divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 2

60/2 = 2x/2

30 = x

x = 30

therefore the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 ) is equals to 30
