Hey guys please solve this for me!!

Please help me, I'm suffering from all of these parallel lines ;9

Anarel [89]

Answer:

1. y = 4x - 27

2. y = -4x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope. So, the slope of the line we are looking for needs to be 4. We can start by writing a point-slope equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We can substitute the values we have, the point we are using is (8, 5) because it needs to be on the line:

y - 5 = 4(x - 8)

We can distribute:

y - 5 = 4x - 32

y = 4x - 27

We are not given the slope-intercept form, so we must divide both sides by two to get it:

y = 1/4 x + 8

A perpendicular line has the slope that is the negative reciprocal of the one that is given. So, the slope of the line would be - 4. We can start by writing a point-slope equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We can substitute the values we have, the point we are using is (-5, 5) because it needs to be on the line:

y - 5 = -4(x + 5)

We can distribute:

y - 5 = -4x - 20

y = -4x - 15

A triangle has an area of 221.16 in.² the height of the triangle is 29.1 inches what is the length of the base of the triangle

Zigmanuir [339]

The formula you should use is Area = 1/2bh, in other words, area equals half times base times height. Now, substitute everything in, the equation should now be 221.16 = 1/2*b*29.1. This simplifies into 221.16 = 14.55b, now divide 14.55 on both sides, which leaves us to 15.2 = b. However, don't forget the units, which the answer (length of base) should be 15.2 in.^2.

a manufacturer has determined that if his company sells x items per day then their profit is given by P=-x^2+ 700 x-10000 euros.

Radda [10]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the minimum amount of items, x, that need to be sold for the manufacturer to make a profit, we can use the quadratic formula

$x = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}; x= \frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}$

$x= \frac{-700+\sqrt{700^{2}-4(a)(-10000) } }{2(1)}; x= \frac{-700-\sqrt{700^{2}-4(a)(-10000) } }{2(1)}$

$x= \frac{-700+\sqrt{530000} }{2}; x= \frac{-700-\sqrt{530000} }{2}$

$x=\frac{-700+100\sqrt{53} }{2}; x=\frac{-700-100\sqrt{53} }{2};$

$x=-350 + 50\sqrt53 = 14.005; x = -350 - 50\sqrt53 = -714.005$

In context of the problem, we can only rely on the positive value, as the negative value would lead to a loss of profit.

$(-714.005)^2+700(-714.005)-10000=-0.360$

Furthermore, we must round to the nearest whole number, as you cannot make part of an item.

Lastly, if you were to plug in 14 into the equation for Profit, you would still have a negative number (i.e. a negative profit), thus requiring the manufacturer to make no less than 15 items to make a profit:

$(14)^2+700(14)-10000=-4\\\\(15)^2+700(15)-10000=725$

consider the equation a(4-x) =-3x + b What values of a and b make the solution of the equation x = -5

-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

put x = -5 in this equation : a(4-x) =-3x + b

a(4+5) =15 + b

9a = 15 +b

b = 9a - 15

the values of a and b is all order pair : ( a ; 9a-15) a real number
