the answer is 22464, because if they marched 1872 yard for the first side, you can multiply it by 3 because there are 3 feet in one yard. Then you multiply that by 4 because there are 4 sides in a square
-9x-6y=15
9x-10y=145
Find y first by eliminating the x.
Add the two equations together.
-9x+9x-6y+-10y=15+145
-6y+-10y=15+145
-6y-10y=160
-16y=160
divide both sides by -16 to get +y
-16y/-16=160/-16
y=-10
Use the substitution method to find x
-9x-6y=15
-9x-6(-10)=15
Do the bracket first
-9x+60=15
Move +60 to the other side. Sign changes from +60 to -60.
-9x+60-60=15-60
-9x=-45
Divide both sides by -9
-9x/-9=-45/-9
x=5
Answer:
( 5,-10)
Six hundred fifteen thousand and four
What you want to do for each of those is follow the formula, y-y[1]=m(x-x[1]). When I say y[1] and x[1], I mean the x and y values given. So the first one would be y-4=-3(x-(-1)). Then you solve for y by distributing the -3 to x and +1 (+1 because two negatives make a positive), making the equation
y-4=-3x-3. Then you subtract the 4. Answer #1. y=-3x-7.
#2.
y-1=1(x-4)
y-1=x-4
y=x-5
#3.
y-2=2(x-(-1))
y-2=2x+2
y=2x+4
Hope this helped you!
In general when a firm produces nothing it still has to pay for the fixed costs while the variable costs are zero
