Answer:

the rug should be 10 feet by 16 feet

this makes the area 160 foot squared

Step-by-step explanation:

there is a 2 foot border on each side so the total area loses 4 feet from length. this gives 10 feet by 16 feet.

Write an equation (a) in slope-intercept form and (b) in standard form for the line passing through (-3,5) and parallel to x + 4
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  • \boxed{\sf Standard-form :x + 4y -17=0 }\\

  • \boxed{\sf Slope-intercept\ form :y =\dfrac{-1}{4}x +\dfrac{17}{4}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here a equation of the line is given to us and we need to find out the equation of line which passes through the given point and parallel to the given line , the given equation is ,

\longrightarrow x + 4y = 7\\

Firstly convert it into <em>s</em><em>l</em><em>o</em><em>p</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>c</em><em>e</em><em>p</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>o</em><em>r</em><em>m</em><em> </em>of the line which is <u>y</u><u> </u><u>=</u><u> </u><u>m</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>+</u><u> </u><u>x</u><u> </u>, as ;

\longrightarrow 4y = -x + 7  \\

\longrightarrow y =\dfrac{-x}{4}+\dfrac{7}{4}\\

On comparing it to <em>y</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>x</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>c</em><em> </em>, we have ,

\longrightarrow m =\dfrac{-1}{4}\\

\longrightarrow c =\dfrac{7}{4}\\

Now as we know that the <em>s</em><em>l</em><em>o</em><em>p</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>o</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>w</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>p</em><em>a</em><em>r</em><em>a</em><em>l</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>l</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>e</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>a</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em> </em>. Therefore the slope of the parallel line will be ,

\longrightarrow m_{||)}=\dfrac{-1}{4}\\

Now we may use <em>p</em><em>o</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>l</em><em>o</em><em>p</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>o</em><em>r</em><em>m</em><em> </em>of the line as ,

\longrightarrow y - y_1 = m(x-x_1) \\

On substituting the respective values ,

\longrightarrow y - 5 =\dfrac{-1}{4}\{ x -(-3)\}\\

\longrightarrow y -5=\dfrac{-1}{4}(x+3)\\

\longrightarrow 4(y -5 ) =-1(x +3) \\

\longrightarrow 4y -20 = - x -3 \\

\longrightarrow x + 4y -20+3=0\\

\longrightarrow \underset{Standard \ Form }{\underbrace{\underline{\underline{ x + 4y -17=0}}}} \\

Again the equation can be rewritten as ,

\longrightarrow y - 5 = \dfrac{-1}{4}(x +3) \\

\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{-1}{4}x -\dfrac{3}{4}+5  \\

\longrightarrow y = \dfrac{-1}{4}x -\dfrac{20-3}{4}  \\

\longrightarrow \underset{Slope-Intercept\ form }{\underbrace{\underline{\underline{  y =\dfrac{-1}{4}x +\dfrac{17}{4}}}}}\\

Aaron rides his bike at a constant rate of 10 miles per hour. Which table represents y, the number of miles Aaron rides his bike
Tema [17]

Answer:

I believe the answer is c. but I'm not too sure.

Step-by-step explanation:

my reasoning for this is because it's the chart that is constant. y starts out with 5=0.5 & they add five more on y's side. & x increased the same amount throughout the chart.

Find measurement of arc JL.
Tresset [83]
4x-2 + 7x-18 + 6x+6 = 360 degrees

combine like terms

17x-14  = 360

add 14 to both sides

17x =374

 divide both sides by 17
x = 374 / 17 = 22

JL = 7x-18
replace x with 22 and calculate
7(22) - 18 = 154 -18 = 136 degrees
