Pretty sure it’s the fourth option
Answers:
bio = 258
sociology = 169
============================================================
Work Shown:
x = number of bio textbooks
y = number of sociology textbooks
x+y = 427 books sold total
y = x-89 since 89 less sociology textbooks were sold compared to bio
Apply substitution to get the following
x+y = 427
x+x-89 = 427 ... replace y with x-89
2x-89 = 427
2x = 427+89
2x = 516
x = 516/2
x = 258 bio textbooks were sold
y = x-89
y = 258-89
y = 169 sociology textbooks were sold
Answer:
13.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A line is perpendiculat to another which has a slope of m if the perpendicular line has a slope of -1/m.
That means that if the product of slopes of two lines is -1, the two lines are perpendicular.
Here, y1=-7/4x, or m=-7/4
The perpendicular should have a slope of -1/m=-1/(-7/4)=4/7
