Just did a specific one of these; let's do the general case.
The point nearest the origin is (a,b).
The line from the origin through the point is
The line we seek is perpendicular to this one. We swap the coefficients on x and y, negating one, to get the perpendicular family of lines. We set the constant by plugging in the point (a,b):
That's standard form; let's plug in the numbers:
2x + 3(6) = 36
2x + 18 = 36
2x = 18
x = 9
answer: each bracelet costs $9
Answer:
22 posts
Step-by-step explanation:
on the side of 20 feet you have 5 fence posts each in including one on each of the corners. On the 35 feet side you would have 8 including the corners, but since the corner posts are done its 6 on each 35 feet side. So you get 5+5+6+6=22
Variables can be used to represent unknown numbers in a equation or expression that you will later find out what they are
