The new parking lot must hold twice as many cars as the previous parking lot. The previous parking lot could hold 56 cars. So this means the new parking lot must hold 2 x 56 = 112 cars
Let y represent the number of cars in each row, and x be the number of total rows in the parking lot. Since the number of cars in each row must be 6 less than the number of rows, we can write the equation as:
y = x - 6 (1)
The product of cars in each row and the number of rows will give the total number of cars. So we can write the equation as:
xy = 112 (2)
Using the above two equations, the civil engineer can find the number of rows he should include in the new parking lot.
Using the value of y from equation 1 to 2, we get:
x(x - 6) = 112 (3)
This equation is only in terms of x, i.e. the number of rows and can be directly solved to find the number of rows that must in new parking lot.
Answer:
1. 8x + 2y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 12y = 10
12y = 3x - 10
y = 1/4 x - 5/6 .... slope: 1/4
perpendicular line slope: -4
8x + 2y= 16
2y = -8x + 16
y = -4x + 8 .... slope: -4
The constant of proportionality is for every 1 x, there is 0.25 y. y = 0.25, and on a graph, x is always the "1." Since x is worth 1, y must be worth 0.25.
Answer:
Cost of one pencil: 
Cost of one eraser: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "p" the cost in dollars of one pencil and "e" the cost in dollars of one eraser.
Based on the information given in the exercise, you can set up the following system of equations:
You can use the Elimination Method to solve the system of equations.
Multiply the first equation by -3 ad the second one by 4. Then add the equations and solve for "e":
{
Substitute the value of "e" into any original equation and solve for "p":
Neither they connect but don’t make a 90 degree angle
