First, we need to get the slope of the equation of the train tracks. We can transform the given equation into the slope-intercept form.
4x +2y = 16
y = -2x +8
The slope of the equation is -2.
A perpendicular line will have the same slope but the opposite sign.
So, the slope of the line of the train crossing is 2. Since, it will pass through the point (8,15), the slope-intercept form can also be used to solve for the equation.
y = mx + b
The slope is 2, so m=2. We solve b by substituting the coordinates.
15 = 2(8) +b
b = -11
The equation is now,
y = -2x - 11
Or it can also be expresses as:
2x - y = 11
Answer:
x = 41 , y = 139
Step-by-step explanation:
x and 41° are alternate exterior angles and are congruent , so
x = 41
x and y are a linear pair and sum to 180° , that is
x + y = 180
41 + y = 180 ( subtract 41 from both sides )
y = 139

9,613
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
Give the expression 72.3 + (-39.1)
opening the parenthesis:
= 72.3 + (-39.1)
= 72.3 - 39.1
Breaking the decimal values into place values
72.3 = 7tens + 2units + 3tenth
72.3 = 7(10)+2(1)+3(1/10)
72.3 =70+2+0.3
Similarly for 39.1
39.1 = 3tens + 9units + 1tenth
39.1 = 3(10)+9(1)+1(1/10)
39.1 =30+9+0.1
72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - (30+9+0.1)
72.3 - 39.1 = 70+2+0.3 - 30-9-0.1
72.3 - 39.1 = 70-30+2-9+0.3-0.1
72.3 - 39.1 = 40 - 7 +0.2
72.3 - 39.1 = 4tens - 7ones + 2tenth
it would be a, b, and c because if you look at the question and the answers, 3 of the four answers match the 3 of the 4 coordinates
