Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation
4x+12y=72
The equation of a line can written as
y=mx+c
Where m is the slope
And c is the intercept on y axis
Then, we need to write the equation given in the form of equation of a line (y=mx+c), by making y subject of the formula
4x+12y=72
12y=-4x+72
Divide through by 12
y=-4x/12 + 72/12
y=-⅓x+6
Then, comparing with equation of a line shows that
m=-⅓ and c=6
So we need to get another linen that is perpendicular to this line and passes through the point (-9,6)
The slope of the line perpendicular to another line is given as
m1=-1/m2
Then, m1=-1÷-⅓
Then, the slope of the perpendicular line is 3
Then, m=3
So apply this to equation of the line
y=mx+c
Then, y=3x+c
So to know c, we will insert the point given(-9,6), x=-9 and y=6
y=3x+c
6=3(-9)+c
6=-27+c
Then, c=6+27
c=33
Then, the equation of line becomes
y=3x+33
The answer is option B. In the distributive property you need to multiply the constant that is outside of the parenthesis, with the terms that are inside :)
The 24 ounce one ig because if you divide 7.50 by 15 you’ll find out that it’s 0.50€ per ounce. You’re saving money and getting more for the 25 pack because it should originally be $12.50 but they are giving you 10 more ounces for just $11.75
X=3, y=4
x=-2, y=9
Set x equal to anything, then isolate y to get the other number.
