a=2

Answer:

(m1) slope of DE=(7-1)/(10-a)=6/(10-a)

(m2) slope of EF=(11-7)/(7-10)=4/-3=-4/3

since line are perpendicular

m1m2=-1

6/(10-a) ×-4/3=-1

6/(10-a)=3/4

6×4=3(10-a)

24=30-3a

3a=30-24

a=6/3=2

balandron [24]

Answer:

Profit = $(700 - 42x - 56y)

Step-by-step explanation:

For large candles, the selling price is $10 and its making cost is $x.

So, by selling a large candle the profit is $(10 - x)

Again for small candles, the selling price is $5 and its making cost is $y.

So, by selling a small candle the profit is $(5 - y)

Therefore, in a sell of 42 large candles and 56 small candles the total profit will be, P = 42 (10 - x) + 56 (5 - y)

⇒ P = 420 - 42x + 280 - 56y {Applying distributive property}

⇒ P = $(700 - 42x - 56y) (Answer)
