Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$y=-3x-9\qquad(1)\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{3}x-39\qquad(2)\\\\\text{Substitute (1) to (2)}\\\\-3x-9=\dfrac{1}{3}x-39\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}\\\\-9x-27=x-117\qquad\text{add 27 to both sides}\\\\-9x=x-90\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-10x=-90\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-10)}\\\\x=9$

$\text{Put the value of x to (1):}\\\\y=-3(9)-9\\\\y=-27-9\\\\y=-36$

Suppose Jamal visits a record store with 788 records. If 264 of the records are from the years 1975 to 1979 and Jamal selects a

svetoff [14.1K]

34% because to find the percentage you need to divide the amount in the time, 264, by the total amount of records, 778, and when you do that you get around .335, and convert that to a percentage you multiply it by 100, and you get 33.5%, but then you round it up to 34%.

What is the area of this figure?

Elanso [62]

First of all we can draw a parallel line to divide the figure into a triangle and a rectangle as shown in the figure. To find the area of our rectangle, remember that the area of a rectangle is length times width, so $A_{r} =lw$ . Since we know for our figure that the length and width of our rectangle are 13cm and 6cm respectively, lets replace those values in our formula to get its area:
$A _{r} =(13cm)(6cm)$
$A=78cm^{2}$
Similarly, the area of a triangle is one half times base times height, so $At=( \frac{1}{2})bh$ . Since we know that our base is 8cm and our height 6cm, lets replace those values in our equation to find the area of our triangle:
$A_{t} =( \frac{1}{2})(8cm)(6cm)$
$A_{t} =24cm^{2}$

Now the only thing left is add our areas:
$A_{total} =78cm^{2}+24cm^{2} =102cm^{2}$

We can conclude that the correct answer is <span>A. 102</span>
