Answer:

The solution is x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is 2x+1-14x=-71


We group like terms to obtain;


2x-14x=-71-1


We now simplify to get;


-12x=-72


We divide both sides of the equation by -12 to get;

\frac{-12x}{-12}=\frac{-72}{-12}


We cancel out the common factors to get;


x=\frac{72}{12}


This implies that


x=\frac{12\times 6}{12}


x=6

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope:
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

\displaystyle 4x - y = 21, -4x + y = -21, or\:y = 4x - 21

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, the <em>y-intercept</em><em> </em>and <em>rate</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>change</em><em> </em>[<em>slope</em>] are given to us, so just put it in Slope-Intercept Form:

\displaystyle y = 4x - 21

If you want it in <em>Standard Form</em>:

y = 4x - 21

- 4x - 4x

_________

\displaystyle -4x + y = -21\:OR\:4x - y = 21

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

The group is planning to build a fence around the garden. How many yards of fencing materials do they need for the fence? Show y
garri49 [273]

Answer:

They need 130 yds to build up the fence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached you can find a picture that will guide the explanation. We will assume that each line is supposed to be a fence. We will assume also that the diagonals that cross any subfield that has the same vegetable is unnecessary.  That is that the diagonal of the tomatoes and the watermelon are not going to be built.

Recall that the red peppers area is a right triangle. So, using pythagora's theorem, we have that

b^2 +12^2 = 15^2 so b=15^2-12^2

which gives us that b = 9.

On the same fashion, the diagonal of the spinach-celery sector is \sqrt[]{8^2+6^2}=10. Recall that the field is a rectangle, so the perimeter of the outter fence is 2*(12+6)+2*(8+9) = 70 yds. Then, the total perimeter is given by

outter fence (70)+

fence spinach-watermelon (8) +

fence red peppers-watermelon(12)+

fence red peppers-carrots (15)+

fence carrots-tomatoes (9)+

fence celery-tomatoes(6) +

fence spinach-celery(10)

= 130 yds

(if the diagonals of tomatoes and watermelon are added, the same procedure applies. watermelon diagonal is 14.42 yds and tomatoes diagonal is 10.81 yds)
