To solve this, you’ll first need to solve for their slopes.
The slope for line Q is y2-y1/x2-x1 = -8-(-2)/-8-(-10) = -3
We know that the lines are perpendicular so the negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
The equation you get it y = 1/3x + b.
Now you will need to solve for b by substituting in the first ordered pair of line R.
2 = 1/3(1) + b.
Once you solve for b, you should get 5/3 and y = 1/3x + 5/3
Now, to find a, you will need to substitute in 10 from the second ordered pair into x in your new equation.
y = 1/3(10) + 5/3.
Your solution should be 5.
So your answer is: a = 5
Answer:
D 0.08
Explanation:
dunno how to
Answer: 10 inches × 14 inches
Work:
length = x inches
width = x - 4 inches
perimeter = 2(l+w)
48 = 2[(x)+(x - 4)]
48 = 2(2x - 4)
24 = 2x - 4
28 = 2x
14 = x
length = x inches = 14 inches
width = x - 4 inches = 14 - 4 = 10 inches
To justify the yearly membership, you want to pay at least the same amount as a no-membership purchase, otherwise you would be losing money by purchasing a yearly membership. So set the no-membership cost equal to the yearly membership cost and solve.
no-membership costs $2 per day for swimming and $5 per day for aerobic, in other words, $7 per day. So if we let d = number of days, our cost can be calculated by "7d"
a yearly membership costs $200 plus $3 per day, or in other words, "200 + 3d"
Set them equal to each other and solve:
7d = 200 + 3d
4d = 200
d = 50
So you would need to attend the classes for at least 50 days to justify a yearly membership. I hope that helps!
5 would be the digit in the tenths place
