Answer:
(-6,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 9y = 60
-9x + y = 62 --> y = 9x + 62 --> 2x + 9(9x + 62) = 60 -->
2x+ 81x + 558 = 60 -->
83x + 558 = 60 -->
83x = -498 -->
x = -6 -->
y = 9(-6) + 62 -->
y = 8
Let Ted be x.
Ed is 7 years older = x + 7
Ed = (3/4)Ted
(x + 7) = (3/4)x
x + 7 = 3x/4
x - 3x/4 = -7
x/4 = -7
x = -28, Ted = -28 years.
(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21, Ed = -21 years
Goodness. We had negative numbers for the ages, well does that make sense? No it doesn't.
Our answer is correct. But the sense in the question is lacking. The question has been wrongly set.
<span>We might assume negative ages to mean before they came into the world, before birth! </span>
Is there a decimal, if so i can answer.
Area is base x height
4x2=8 cm
The equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is y = –4x – 16.
Solution:
The equation of a line given is y = 0.25x – 7
Slope of the given line(
) = 0.25
Let 
be the slope of the perpendicular line.
Passes through the point (–6, 8).
<em>If two lines are perpendicular then the product of the slopes equal to –1.</em>
Point-slope intercept formula:
and 
Substitute these in the formula, we get
Add 8 on both sides of the equation.
Hence the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is
y = –4x – 16
