Use slope formula:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
-1/4 = 6-2 / 1/2 - x
-1/4 = 4 / 1/2 - x
-1(1/2 - x) = 4(4)
-1/2 + x = 16
x = 16 1/2 or 33/2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps you.
1. Place your compass point on X and measure the distance to point Y. Swing an arc of this size above (or below) the segment.
2. Without changing the span on the compass, place the compass point on Y and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc.
3. Label the point of intersection as the third vertex of the equilateral triangle.
4. Use you straight edge and connect the points.
The number of tissues that can fit the container will be given by:
[volume of the container]/[volume of tissue box]
volume of container:
V=length×width×height
V=19.5×39×19.5
V=14829.75
Volume of tissue box:
v=6.5×6.5×6.5
v=274.625
Number of tissues in the container:
14829.75/274.625
=54
Answer: 54 tissue paper boxes
