Answer:

3y=x-1 OR y=⅓x-⅓

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call the equation y=-3x+7 line l1

the other line passing through (4,1) l2

If two lines are perpendicular,then the product of their roots=-1

That is m(l1)×m(l2)=-1

Slope of l1=-3 therefore slope of l2=-1÷-3=⅓

Now that we have determined the slope of l2 we move on to find it's equation using the point-slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=⅓(x-4)

3y-3=x-4

3y=x-4+3

3y=x-1 OR y=⅓x-⅓

5. Start by finding how many tiles make up the outer edge of the pool. We know that each tile is 3/4 foot, and that the entire length is 12 feet. So by doing a division, we'll find how many tiles there are:
12 ÷ 3/4 = 16. By looking at the picture, we can confirm this. By looking at the picture we also see that the pool is the same length as 14 tiles, so the fraction is 14/16 -> 7/8.

Answer: There is 36 girls and 54 boys.

Step-by-step explanation: If there is 36 girls and there is 3 boys for every 2 girls that means half of 36 is 18 so do 18 times 3 which will equal 54 boys.
