Slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b "m" is the slope
First i would isolate the "y" in the equation.
2x + y = 4 Subtract 2x on both sides
2x - 2x + y = 4 - 2x
y = 4 - 2x or y = -2x + 4
The given line's slope is -2.
For lines to be perpendicular, their slopes have to be the opposite/negative reciprocals (flipped sign and number)
For example:
slope is 2
perpendicular line's slope is -1/2
slope is -2/3
perpendicular line's slope is 3/2
The given line's slope is -2, so the perpendicular line's slope is 1/2.
The 3rd option is your answer
(0,-3) (1, -1) (2, 1) ....
65-9=56
56 divided by 8 is 7
So they will need 7 tents
Answer: A; 6.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem 1
For the first problem, we first want to find y so that we can plug it into the expression.
We can use elimination method for the system of equations to solve.
3x+3y=21
3x-y=5
We subtract both equations to eliminate x.
4y=16 [divide both sides by 4]
y=4
Now that we know y, we can plug it into the expression.
[divide]
[subtract]

We know that the answer is A.

Problem 2
For the second problem, we need to know how to calculate percent error. The formula for precent error is
. We know that the exact value is 80 because the buyer was supposed to given 80. 75 is the measured value because that was what the buyer was given.
[subtract]
[solve absolue value]
[divide]
[multiply]

Since the problem said to round to one decimal place, we know that the answer is 6.3%.
