Answer: k = -1 +/- √769

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

48x - ky = 11

<u>-48x        </u>  <u> -48x</u>

         -ky = -48x + 11

         \frac{-ky}{-k} = \frac{-48x}{-k} + \frac{11}{-k}    

           y =\frac{48x}{k} - \frac{11}{k}

Slope: \frac{48}{k}

*************************************************************************

 (k + 2)x + 16y = -19

<u>- (k + 2)x          </u>   -<u>(k + 2)x </u>

                 16y = -(k + 2)x - 19

                  \frac{16y}{16} = -\frac{(k + 2)x}{16} - \frac{19}{16}

                  y = -\frac{(k + 2)x}{16} - \frac{19}{16}

Slope: -\frac{(k + 2)}{16}

**********************************************************************************

\frac{48}{k} and -\frac{(k + 2)}{16} are perpendicular so they have opposite signs and are reciprocals of each other.  When multiplied by its reciprocal, their product equals -1.

-\frac{(k + 2)}{16} *  \frac{k}{48} = -1

\frac{(k + 2)k}{16(48)} = 1

Cross multiply, then solve for the variable.

(k + 2)(k) = 16(48)

k² + 2k - 768 = 0

Use quadratic formula to solve:

k = -1 +/- √769

Answer:

Multiply the number of producers by $ 5,000.00

Question:

Members of a producer association

decided to donate $ 5,000.00 each to improve the production. Than

procedure allows know the total contribution?

A) Divide $ 5,000.00 between the

number of producers

B) Multiply the amount of producers for $ 5,000.00

C) Add the amount of producers plus $ 5,000.00

О

D) Subtract $ 5,000.00 from the amount of producers

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the total contribution

Each manufacture will contribute $5,000.00

We were not told the number of manufacturers that would be contributing the amount.

Total contribution = number of manufactures × $5000

The procedure that allows one to know the total contribution:

Multiply the number of producers by $ 5,000.00

Option has B stated 'amount' instead of 'number'. It may be a mistake

B) Multiply the amount of producers for $ 5,000.00
