Using linear function concepts, the slope of -1 means that when one of the length/width is increased by 1, the other is decreased by 1.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem:

  • The lengths and the widths are interchangeable, that is, either can be considered as the input or as the output.
  • The slope of -1 means that when the input in increased by 1, the output is decreased by -1, that is, when one of the length/width is increased by 1, the other is decreased by 1.

Gini has a small garden that is 234 yards in length and 1 yard and with she grows roses 1/2 of her garden how many square yards
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

117 square yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of garden = 234 yards

Breadth of garden = 1 yard

She grows roses 1/2 of her garden.

Question asked:

How many square yards are Gini's garden has roses ?

Solution:

First of all we will find area of rectangular garden.

Area \  of \  rectangle = Length\times breadth

                             =234\times1 =234  \ square \ yards

Then, as here given half of garden, she grows roses, we will find half of the

rectangular garden.

\frac{1}{2} \ of 234\\\frac{1}{2} \times234 =117\ square\ yards

Therefore, 117 square yards of her garden has roses.

A walking path across a park is represented by the equation y=-3x - 3.A
kifflom [539]

Answer:

  y -6 = 1/3(x +3)   or   y = 1/3x +7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line describing the given path is the x-coefficient, -3. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that:

  m = -1/(-3) = 1/3

The point-slope form of the equation for a line can be used to write the equation for the new path:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

For m=1/3 and (h, k) = (-3, 6), the new path can be represented by ...

  y -6 = 1/3(x +3) . . . . point-slope form

  y = (1/3)x +7 . . . . . . slope-intercept form
