Answer:
y = 5x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the equation of a line with two points
y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1
Giving two points
( -4 , 10)(16 , -2)
x_1 = -4
y_1 = 10
x_2 = 16
y_2 = -2
Using the above formula
y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1
-12 - 3 / -1 - 2 = y - 3 / x - 2
-15/-3 = y - 3 /x - 2
Cross multiply
-15(x - 2) = -3(y - 3)
-15x + 30 = -3y + 9
-15x + 30 + 3y - 9 = 0
-15x +30 - 9 + 3y = 0
-15x + 21 + 3y = 0
3y = 15x - 21 ( following y = mx + C
Dividing through by 3 to find y
3y/3 = 15x -21 / 3
y = 15x - 21 / 3
We can still separate
y = 15x / 3 - 21/3
y = 5x - 7
Therefore, the equation of the line is
y = 5x - 7
area = width * length
or
A = W * L
55 = W * (W+6)
solve for width:
0 = W^2 + 6W - 55
this is a quadratic and has two solutions -11 and 5
a length can only be non-negative so discard -11.
width W = 5 miles
now the length is 5+6 = 11 miles
Sry I don’t know try Socratic
Selling price of the chair = 1440 rupees
Percentage of loss made by the shopkeeper = 10%
Let us assume the price at which the shopkeeper bought the chair = x
Then
90% * x = 1440 rupees
(90/100) * x = 1440 rupees
9x/10 = 1440 rupees
9x = 1440 * 10 rupees
9x = 14400 rupees
x = 14400/9 rupees
= 1600 rupees
So the price at which the shopkeeper bought the chair was 1600 rupees. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to inderstand.
