4x+7y=4.88 -> mult by -3 -> -12x-21y=-14.64
12x+8y=7.88
-12x-21y=-14.64
Add the two above equations together, the y will be left:
-13y=-6.76
y=0.52 —> cost of each apple (plug back into one of original equations, I chose 4x+7y=4.88:
4x+7(0.52)=4.88
Solve for x.
x=0.31 —> cost of each orange

Calculate the area of the quarter circle estimate using 3.14 for pi
mars1129 [50]

The area of the quarter circle with radius 3ft is 7.065 ft^2

Area of a quarter circle is given by the formula:

Area = \frac{\pi r^2}{4}

Where r represents the radius of the circle

In the quarter circle shown, the radius, r = 3 feet

π  =  3.14

Substitute π = 3.14 and r = 3 into the formula Area = \frac{\pi r^2}{4}

Area = \frac{3.14 \times 3^2}{4}\\\\Area =   \frac{3.14 \times 9}{4}\\\\Area =  \frac{28.26}{4}\\\\Area = 7.065 ft^2

The area of the quarter circle with radius 3ft is 7.065 ft^2

Can you help me please??

Answer:

y = \frac{4}{5}x+\frac{54}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line has been given as,

y=\frac{4}{5}x+\frac{3}{5}

Here, slope of the line = \frac{4}{5}

y-intercept = \frac{3}{5}

"If the two lines are parallel, there slopes will be equal"

By this property slope of the parallel line to the given line will be equal.

Therefore, slope 'm' = \frac{4}{5}

Since, slope intercept form of a line is,

y = mx + b

Therefore, equation of the parallel line will be,

y = \frac{4}{5}x+b

Since, this line passes through a point (-6, 6),

6 = \frac{4}{5}(-6)+b

6 = -\frac{24}{5}+b

b = 6+\frac{24}{5}

b = \frac{30+24}{5}

b = \frac{54}{5}

Equation of the parallel line will be,

y = \frac{4}{5}x+\frac{54}{5}
