Answer:

4 feet and 9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to take the 11 inches from the 9 but you can't so you would take the 3 missing inches from the 10 foot and that would make it 9 feet and 9 inches

then take 5 from the left over 9 and that is 4 so your answer would be 4 feet and 9 inches

What is the equation for the line that passes through (3, 2) and has a slope equal to 12 3

Papessa [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

I'm not sure I know what you intend for the slope. I will take it as 12/3 = 4

If that is the case then what you have so far is

Solution

y = 4x + b

The given point determines b

Givens

x = 3

y = 2

Given point

2 = 4*3 + b

2 = 12 + b

b = 2 - 12

b = -10

The equation is y = 4x - 10

You are planning to purchase displays for your store which has 2400 sq ft of selling space. each display has a footprint of 10ft

polet [3.4K]

For this case, the sales space of the displays is given by:
(2400) * (1-0.60) = 960 feet ^ 2
We now look for the area of each display:
(10) * (4) = 40 feet ^ 2
With this information, we can then search the number of displays:
N = (960) / (40)
N = 24 displays
Answer:
you can fit 24 displays.

1) Find an equation of the line that passes through thr pair of points (-5,-9) and (2,-7).

Yuki888 [10]

1: Assuming this line is linear, the first thing to do is find the slope.
The slope formula is $m=\frac{ y_{2} - y_{1} }{ x_{2} - x_{1} }$ , so in this case, it is $m=\frac{ (-7) - (-9) }{ 2 - (-5) }$ , which comes to $\frac{2}{7}$ . Then, use your slope and one of the points given to write the point-slope formula of the linear equation, and then written in standard form:
y= $\frac{2}{7}$ x- $\frac{53}{7}$ .

2. Use the same process as in question 1 to find:
y=-7x+11
