Answer: B) (-4,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Begin the problem by solving for y with the second equation. Add -4x to both sides of the equation so it reads y=4x+21. Then, substitute y into the first equation and solve. -2x-3(4x+21)=-7 turns into -14x-63=-7, which becomes -14x=56. Divide 56/-14 to get -4 for x. Since only one answer has -4 as an option for x, that's the correct answer.

Through: (-5, -3), perp. to y=-9/4x-5

Mrrafil [7]

Given:

A line passes through (-5,-3) and perpendicular to $y=-\dfrac{9}{4}x-5$ .

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

We have,

$y=-\dfrac{9}{4}x-5$

On comparing this equation with slope intercept form, i.e., $y=mx+b$ , we get

$m_2=-\dfrac{9}{4}$

It means, slope of this line is $-\dfrac{9}{4}$ .

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is always -1.

$m_1\times m_2=-1$

$m_1 \times \left(-\dfrac{9}{4}\right)=-1$

$m_1=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Slope of required line is $\dfrac{4}{9}$ and it passes through the point (-5,-3). So, the equation of the line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where, m is slope.

$y-(-3)=\dfrac{4}{9}(x-(-5))$

$y+3=\dfrac{4}{9}(x+5)$

$9(y+3)=4(x+5)$

$9y+27=4x+20$

$27-20=4x-9y$

$7=4x-9y$

Therefore, the equation of required line is $4x-9y=7$ .

Plllllllease helpppppp

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b/c we know that these triangles both have equal sides... that is given that ab and be are the same length. and that be and cd are parallel , we know that they both are isosceles triangles and that the base angles are the same. The side on ad and ae have equal angles.

so we can make the equation

2a +56 = 180 (b/c we know that around a triangle it's 180°

2 a = 124

a = 62

so ∠ BAE = 62°

Determine the term life insurance amount per thousand on a 22-year-old female for a 5-year policy given that the face value of t

VLD [36.1K]

We need to determine the term life insurance amount per thousand on a 22-year-old female for a 5-year policy given that the face value of the policy is $600,000 and the annual premium is $1332.

Since we are supposed to find the term life insurance amount per thousand, therefore, we will use the following formula:

$\text{Term life insurance amount}=\frac{\text{Annual premium}}{\text{Face value of insurance}}*1000$

Upon substituting the values of annual premium and face value of insurance, we get:

$\text{Term life insurance amount}=\frac{\text{1332}}{\text{600000}}*1000\\
\text{Term life insurance amount}=\$2.22$

Therefore, the required life insurance amount is $2.22.
