Answer:

The given equation cannot be written in slope intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$y=mx+b$

Is the equation of the line in slope intercept form

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

In this problem we have

$x=9.4$

This is a vertical line (parallel to the y-axis)

The slope is undefined

therefore

The given equation cannot be written in slope intercept form

9x-22=23+4x I don't understand how to do this

anygoal [31]

9x-22=23+4x Now you subtract 4x from both sides to get the variable on one side.. 5x-22=23 Now solve as you would solve a 2 step equation. 5x=45 Divide both sides by 5 to get the variable by itself. x=9

On Tuesday Conrad had 3 times as many sales as on Monday. On Wednesday, he had 9 times as many sales as on Monday. Over the thre

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Conrad had 56 sales on Monday , 168 sales on Tuesday and 504 sales on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no. of sales on Monday

We are given that On Tuesday Conrad had 3 times as many sales as on Monday.

So, Conrad had sales on Tuesday = 3x

We are also given that On Wednesday, he had 9 times as many sales as on Monday.

So, Conrad had sales on Wednesday = 9x

Over the three days, he had a total of 728 sales

So, x+3x+9x=728

13x=728

$x=\frac{728}{13}$

x=56

Conrad had sales on Tuesday = 3x =3(56)=168

Conrad had sales on Wednesday = 9x=9(56)=504

Hence Conrad had 56 sales on Monday , 168 sales on Tuesday and 504 sales on Wednesday.

HELP PLEASE!!! I need help with this question!

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{PS=10\sqrt5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔPQS, ΔRQP and ΔRPS are similar (AA). Therefore the sides are in proportion:

$\dfrac{QR}{RP}=\dfrac{RP}{RS}$

We have:

$QR=5,\ RS=20$

Substitute:

$\dfrac{5}{RP}=\dfrc{RP}{20}$ cross multiply

$RP^2=(5)(20)\\\\RP^2=100\to RP=\sqrt{100}\\\\RP=10$

Use the Pythagorean theorem:

$PS^2=PR^2+RS^2$

Substitute:

$PS^2=10^2+20^2\\\\PS^2=100+400\\\\PS^2=500\to PS=\sqrt{500}\\\\PS=\sqrt{100\cdot5}\\\\PS=\sqrt{100}\cdot\sqrt5\\\\PS=10\sqrt5$

The length and breadth of a rectangular field are 312m and 186m respectively; correct to the nearest metres. Between what limits

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

$P \geq 1000 \; meters$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Length = 312 meters

Breadth = 186 meters

To find the perimeter of the rectangle;

Mathematically, the perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula;

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

Perimeter = 2(312 + 186)

Perimeter = 2(498)

Perimeter = 996 meters

To the nearest meters, we have;

Perimeter = 996 ≈ 1000 meters

Let P represent the perimeter of a rectangular field.

900 1000

Therefore, $P \geq 1000 \; meters$

A lion paced up and down the ridge 10 times. The ridge is 5 ft. 3 in. long. How far did the lion travel? (12 in.=1 ft.)

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

105 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 x 12 = 60

So 5 feet is 60 inches.

60 + 3 = 63

That makes the ridge 63 inches long.

When the lion went up the ridge, it traveled 63 inches.

When the lion went back down the ridge, it traveled another 63 inches, totaling 126 inches.

The lion did this 10 times.

126 x 10 = 1260

Divide 1260 by 12 to find the measurement in feet.

1260 ÷ 12 = 105
