A line is drawn through (–7, 11) and (8, –9). The equation y – 11=-4/3 (x + 7) is written to represent the line. Which equations
marin [14]

Answer:

y=-\frac{4}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}

4x+3y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y-11=-\frac{4}{3}(x+7) -----> equation of the line into point slope form

step 1

Find the equation of the line into slope intercept form

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept (value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)

For x=0

y-11=-\frac{4}{3}(0+7)

y=-\frac{28}{3}+11

y=\frac{5}{3}

therefore

b=\frac{5}{3}

substitute

y=-\frac{4}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}  ----> equation of the line into slope intercept form

step 2

Find the equation of the line in standard form

Ax+By=C

we have

y=-\frac{4}{3}x+\frac{5}{3}

Multiply by 3 both sides

3y=-4x+5

4x+3y=5 ---> equation of the line in standard form

Ama bought 12 eggs at $1.10 each. If 3 of the eggs got broken and sold the remaining at $1.45 each, calculate the
kkurt [141]

Answer:

1.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

cost price=1.10×12

=$13.20

selling price=(12-3)×1.45

=9×1.45

=$13.05

loss= cost price-selling price

=13.20-13.05

=0.15

loss percent=0.15/13.20×100

1.13636

1.1%

Find x in DEF<br><br>A. 6<br>B. 6 (square root 2)<br>C. 6 (square root 3)<br>D. 12​
netineya [11]

Answer:

B. 6√2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve this out. The Pythagorean Theorem states that for any right triangle with the shortest sides (called legs) as a and b and the longest side (called the hypotenuse) as c:

a² + b² = c²

Here, a = b = 6, so:

6² + 6² = c²

36 + 36 = c²

72 = c²

c = √72 = 6√2

Now, we see the answer is B.

However, there's a trick to solving these kinds of problems. Notice that DEF is both an isosceles triangle and a right triangle. We call these 45-45-90 triangles because those are the angles of the triangle.

One characteristic of these types of triangles is that their leg to leg to hypotenuse ratio is 1 : 1 : √2, always. We could apply that here. We see that the legs are 6, so we could find the hypotenuse simply by multiplying 6 by √2, and we would get 6√2, which is exactly the value we obtained above.

Thus, the answer is B.
