Negative reciprocal means
-1/4 times x=-1 solve for x
multiply both sides by -4/1
x=-4
so slope=-4
y=mx+b
m=slope, b=y intercpet
y=-4x+b
input 3 for x and -5 for y
-5=-4(3)+b
-5=-12+b
add 12 to both sides
7=b
the equation in slope intercept form is y=-4x+7
that is my standard form
another standard form is
y+4x=7

An electric utility company determines the monthly bill for a residential customer by adding an energy charge of 6.34 cents per
kirill [66]

Answer:

y = 18.38 + 0.0634x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Monthly base charge = $18.38,

Also, the cost of each kilowatt-hours = 6.34 cents = $ 0.0634

( 1 cents = 0.01 dollars ),

So, the cost of x kilowatt-hours = 0.0634x,

If y represents the total monthly charge ( in dollars ) for x kilowatt-hours,

Thus, the total monthly charge for x kilowatt-hours = base charge + cost of x kilowatt-hours,

⇒ y = 18.38 + 0.0634x

Which is the required equation.

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Edith is x years old.

Her sister,Madison is six years older than her. This means that the age of Madison is x + 6

Their mother is twice as old as Madison. This means that the age of their mother is expressed as

2(x + 6)

= 2x + 12

Their aunt, Elizabeth is x years older than their mother. This means that the expression that represents Elizabeth's age in years is

2x + 12 + x

= 3x + 12

Answer:

11

Step-by-step explanation:

Luke has a square patio, which means each side must have the same amount of tiles.

For example, he could have a 4 by 4 patio, 5 by 5, etc.

121 happens to be the square of 11. In other words, 11*11=121!

So, Luke can fit 11 tiles along each side of his patio.
