I use a website called desmos.com when I need to graph a function. Heres a picture of what it should look like.
Answer:
The slope is -7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
∵ 7x + 4y = 10
∵ y = mx + c ⇒ where m is the slope of the line
∴ Re-arrange the equation
∴ 4y = 10 - 7x ⇒ ÷4
∴ y = 10/4 - (7/4) x
∴ y = 5/2 - (7/4) x
∴ The slope is -7/4
The number of books sold is 473.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
- The original cost of each book = $0.64
- The selling price of each book = $0.75
The difference between the original price and selling price of the book gives the profit per book.
The profit of one book = Selling price - Original price
Let,
- The total number of books be 'x'.
- The number of books sold be 'y'.
- The unsold books is 100.
- The total profit is -12 because it was gone to a loss of $12.
Therefore, the equation is formed as
total Profit = 0.75y - 0.64x
⇒ 0.75y - 0.64x = -12 --------(1)
Total books = sold books + unsold books
x = y + 100
⇒ x-y = 100 -------(2)
Substitute x= 100+y in the eq(1),
0.75y - 0.64(100+y) = -12
0.75y - 64 -0.64y = -12
0.11y = -12 +64
y = 52 / 0.11
y = 472.7
y ≅ 473
The number of book sold is 473 books.
The total number of books is (100+473) = 573 books.
Answer:
y =
x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = -
x ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = -
, c = 0
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
=
, then
y =
x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (3, - 8) into the partial equation
- 8 = 4 + c ⇒ c = - 8 - 4 = - 12
y =
x - 12 ← equation of perpendicular line
