If a salesperson sells 3/4 of an acre for $80,000, what was the price per square foot rounded to two decimal spaces?

Julli [10]

Now, recalling that for 1 yard, there are 3 feet, therefore $\bf \begin{array}{ll}
yards&feet\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
1yd&3ft\\
(1yd)^2&(3ft)^2\\
yd^2&3^2ft^2\\
&9ft^2
\end{array}$

and keeping in mind that, there are 4840 yd² in 1 acre, then

$\bf \cfrac{\quad \frac{3}{4}~\underline{acre}\quad }{80000~\$}\cdot \cfrac{4840~\underline{yd^2}}{\underline{acre}}\cdot \cfrac{9~ft^2}{\underline{yd^2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{4}\cdot4840\cdot 9~ft^2}{80000~\$}\implies \cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{80000}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\frac{130680}{4}}{\frac{80000}{1}}\implies \cfrac{130680}{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{80000}\implies \cfrac{3267}{8000}~\frac{ft^2}{\$}~\approx~ 0.408375 ~\frac{ft^2}{\$}$

Write an equation for the line that is parallel to y = −2x and passes through the point (0,7).

lesya [120]

Answer:

B. $\displaystyle y = -2x + 7$

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is given to us, which is $\displaystyle [0, 7],$ and Parallel Lines have SIMILAR <em>RATE </em><em>OF CHANGES</em><em> </em>[<em>SLOPES</em>],<em> </em>so −2 remains the way it is.
