Answer:

y - 20 = (-1/5)(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is 5.  The slope of any line perpendicular to the given line is the negative reciprocal of the given slope:  

Slope of perpendicular line here is -1/5.

We use the point-slope formula as a framework here:

y - 20 = (-1/5)(x - 5)

A farmer wants to fence in a rectangular plot of land adjacent to the north wall of his barn. no fencing is needed along the bar
jeyben [28]

Hi,

Let assume a the west side,

b the length of the north wall (i suppose the answer is smaller then the barn.

Cost of the fence= a*6+a*12+b*12=3000 $.

So 3a+2b=500==>b=(500-3a)/2

Area =a*b=a(500-3a)/2= 250a-3/2a²

Derivate the area ==> 250-3a=0

==> a=250/3 and b=(500-3*250/3)/2=125

Width=125 (feet)

Length=250/3=83.333 (feet)

How do I figure this anser-6w &lt; 84​
Sophie [7]

Answer:

w > -14

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by -6.

-6w/-6 = w

84/-6 = 14

Since it's an equality, if the coefficient of the variable is negative, when you divide the sign flips to the opposite.
