Given,

The four numbers are consecutive

The numbers are

x + 1

x + 2

x + 3

Sum = -34

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) = -34

x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = -34

(x + x + x) + (1 + 2 + 3) = -34

3x + 6 = -34

3x = -34 - 6

3x = -40

x = -40/3

Hi there! An average person ate 200.8 pounds of meat, so we would multiply that number by 3 to see how much meat the family ate altogether. 200.8 * 3 is 602.4. There. A family of 3 would eat 602.4 pounds of meat in a year.

For the purpose of purchasing new baseboard andâ€‹ carpet, complete parts a and b below.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

(a)i. Area=72 square feet

ii. Perimeter =34 feet

(b) Baseboard - perimeter

Carpet - area

Step-by-step explanation:

The room is 9ft x 8ft, therefore it is rectangular shaped.

Length=9ft; Breadth=8ft

(a)i. Area of a Rectangle= Length X Breadth

Area of the room=8X9=72 square feet

ii. Perimeter of a Rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)

Perimeter of the room=2(8+9)=2 X 17 =34 feet

(b) A baseboard goes around the edge or boundary of the room, so it has to do with perimeter

A carpet covers the entire floor so it has to do with the area of the room.

Graph the line for y+1=−3/5(x−4) on the coordinate plane. Move Line Undo Redo Reset

Answer:

The equation of line is shown below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line is

$y+1=\frac{-3}{5}(x-4)$

It is the point slope form of a line, therefore the slope of the line is $\frac{-3}{5}$ and the line passing through (4,-1).

Rewrite the above equation in slope intercept form.

$y=\frac{-3}{5}x+\frac{12}{5}-1$

$y=\frac{-3}{5}x+\frac{12-5}{5}$

$y=\frac{-3}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}$

The point slope form of a line is

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.

Therefore the slope of the line is $\frac{-3}{5}$ and the y-intercept of the line is $\frac{7}{5}$ .

Slope is defined as

$m=\frac{Rise}{Run}$

Since the slope is negative, therefore the run of the line is considered on the left side. The line rise by 3 and run by 5, therefore we will add 7 in y and subtract 5 from x.

The y-intercept is $(0,\frac{7}{5})$ .

$(0-5,\frac{7}{5}+3)=(-5,\frac{22}{5})=(-5,4.4)$

Therefore we have three points (4,-1), (-5,4.4) and (0,1.4). Plot the point on the coordinate plane and connect them be a straight line.
