-8(9)= -72; -4(-6)= 24; -72+24= -48

Answer:

-48

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the expression:

$-8y-4x$

and asked to evaluated when x= -6 and y=9. Therefore, we must substitute -6 in for x and 9 in for y.

$-8(9)-4(-6)$

Solve according to PEMDAS: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Multiply -8 and 9 ⇔ -8*9= -72

$-72-4(-6)$

Multiply -4 and -6 ⇔ -4*-6=24

$-72+24$

Add 24 to -72.

$-48$

The expression -8y-4x when evaluated at x=-6 and y=9 is equal to -48.

If I’m not mistaken it should be 8x+25. :)
Hope this helps!

63 is 90% of what number? using double number lines to get the answer

iren2701 [21]

Since the 90% is 63. divide it by 9. then you would get value of 7. then multiple it by 10.
which is equal to 70. so 100% is 70.

Area of a triangle with verticals of (-4,1),(-7,5),(0,1)

Lynna [10]

Answer:

$8 ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume that the three points given are the vertices of the triangle. So the three points are:

A (-4,1)

B (-7,5)

C (0,1)

The area of a triangle is given by:

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

where b is the base and h is the height.

Here we can take as follows:

- We can take the base to be the side AC, so that its length is equal to the distance between the two points:

$AC=\sqrt{(0-(-4))^2+(1-1)^2}=4$

- The height of the triangle is therefore the perpendicular distance between AC and point B. This is equivalent the difference in the x-coordinate between any point on AC and B, so:

$h=(5-1)=4 ft$

Therefore, the area of the triangle is:

$A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(4)=8 ft^2$

a conical tank with vertex down is 10 feet across the top and 12 feet deep. If water is flowing out of the tank at a rate of 12

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The water level is dropping at a rate of 0.24 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we simply want to calculate the change in depth (height of the cone) , given the volume change

Mathematically, we have the volume of a cone as;

V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h

we are given dv/dt as 12 ft^3/m

dv/dh = 1/3 * π * r^2

Substituting the value for the radius, we have

dv/dh = 1/3 * 22/7 * 4^2 = 50.29

dh/dt = dh/dv * dv/dt

dh/dv = 1/(dv/dh) = 1/50.29

Thus,

dh/dt = 1/50.29 * 12

dh/dt = 0.24 ft/s
