Y=-25x-6 The slope-intercept form is Y=mx+b
The distance between the two streets along Kendall is 347.9 feet.
Solution:
The image of the problem is attached below.
Distance between Wilmington to Ash Grove along Kendall = 820 feet
Distance between Wilmington to Ash Grove along Magnolia = 660 feet
Distance between Beech and Ash Grove along Magnolia = 280 feet
Distance between Wilmington to Beech along Magnolia
= 660 feet – 280 feet
= 380 feet
Let us x be the distance between Wilmington to Beech along Kendall and
820 – x be the distance between Beech and Ash Grove along Kendall.
The given streets are parallel.
By proportionality theorem, parallel lines cut by a transversal are in proportion.

Do cross multiplication.





Distance between Beech and Ash Grove along Kendall
= 820 – x
= 820 – 472.1
= 347.9
Hence the distance between the two streets along Kendall is 347.9 feet.
150% is the percent markup of the price based on the cost.
Price : 1.25
Cost : 0.50
Mark up: Price - Cost = 1.25 - 0.50 = 0.75
<span>0.75 / 0.50 = 1.50 * 100% = </span>150%
Let’s say
Length= L
Width= W
L=2w
L+L+w+w=48 = 3L=48
48/3=16
L=16
W=8
