Answer:

1,250 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2,000 in 1 ton, so 5 * 2,000 = 10,000 lbs weight limit for the bridge.

10,000-8750 = 1,250 lbs can be added to the truck  before they reach the bridge weight limit.

Through: (-5, -3), perp. to y=-9/4x-5
Mrrafil [7]

Given:

A line passes through (-5,-3) and perpendicular to y=-\dfrac{9}{4}x-5.

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

We have,

y=-\dfrac{9}{4}x-5

On comparing this equation with slope intercept form, i.e., y=mx+b, we get

m_2=-\dfrac{9}{4}

It means, slope of this line is -\dfrac{9}{4}.

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1.

m_1\times m_2=-1

m_1 \times \left(-\dfrac{9}{4}\right)=-1

m_1=\dfrac{4}{9}

Slope of required line is \dfrac{4}{9} and it passes through the point (-5,-3). So, the equation of the line is

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where, m is slope.

y-(-3)=\dfrac{4}{9}(x-(-5))

y+3=\dfrac{4}{9}(x+5)

9(y+3)=4(x+5)

9y+27=4x+20

27-20=4x-9y

7=4x-9y

Therefore, the equation of required line is 4x-9y=7.
