Answer:

7y + 2x + 34 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient for perpendicular, m = -2/7

The formular equation, y - y1 = m(x - x1)

The equation of line through (4, -6) is:

y - (-6) = -2/7(x - 4)

y + 6 = -2x/7 + 8/7

7y + 42 + 2x - 8 = 0

7y + 2x + 34 = 0

Answer:

the desired equation is y = (-7/2)x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Don't you mean y = -2/7x+9, or y = (2/7)x+9?   Any line perpendicular to this line has a slope of -7/2, the negative reciprocal of (2/7).

Start with the slope-intercept formula:

y = mx + b.  Substitute -6 for  y, 4 for x and -7/2 for m.  Then we have

-6 = (-7/2)(4) + b.   This reduces to -6 = -14 + b, so that b must be -8.

Thus, the desired equation is y = (-7/2)x - 8

How to slove with systems of equations
juin [17]

Answer:

$3 for Syd and $5 for Mark

Step-by-step explanation:

when Mark worked 8 hours and Syd worked 10 hours they earned $80

when Mark worked 9h Syd worked 5h they earned $65

we can make a equation out of these information

8M + 10S = $80

9M + 5S = $65 we can use the systems of equations by eliminating method

multiply second equation by -2

-2 × (9M + 5S) = $65

-18M - 10S = -$130 now add up the new equation with the first one

8M + 10S - 18M - 10S = $80 - $130 (10S will eliminate -10S)

-10M = -$50

10M = $50

M = $5

we can use hourly rate we found for M (Mark) to find the hourly rate for S (Syd)

9×5 + 5S = $65

45 + 5S = $65

5S = $15

S = $3

Amanda [17]

Answer:

V(max) =  8712.07 in³

Dimensions:

x (side of the square base)  = 16.33 in

girth   = 65.32 in

height = 32.67 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x  = side of the square base

h = the height of the postal

Then according to problem statement we have:

girth = 4*x     (perimeter of the base)

and

4* x  +  h  = 98  (at the most)   so   h = 98 - 4x  (1)

Then

V = x²*h

V = x²* ( 98 - 4x)

V(x) = 98*x² - 4x³

Taking dervatives (both menbers of the equation we have:

V´(x)  =  196 x   -  12 x²        ⇒   V´(x) = 0

196x - 12x²  = 0   first root of the equation  x = 0

Then   196 -12x = 0      12x = 196     x = 196/12

x = 16,33 in      ⇒    girth = 4 * (16.33)       ⇒ girth = 65.32 in

and from equation (1)

y = 98 - 4x       ⇒  y = 98 -4 (16,33)

y = 32.67 in

and maximun volume of a carton V is

V(max) = (16,33)²* 32,67

V(max) = 8712.07 in³
