Find the slope of 7x+9y=45
Svetach [21]

Answer: -7/9

Step-by-step explanation: To identify the slope of this line, first notice that this equation is in standard form which is Ax + By = C.

To find the slope, we need to solve for our variable <em>y</em>.

We first need to identify what is happening to our variable <em>y</em>. You can notice that it's being multiplied by 9 and is being added by 7x because 7x is a +7x so we're adding the 7x to the 9y.

So the first thing we do is undo addition and subtraction to our variable.

On the left the -7x's cancel and we are left with 9y. on the right, we do not want to write 45 - 7x because we always want to keep our variable in front of our constant. So I will just write that as 9y = -7x + 45.

Now we can divide everything by 9 in order to get <em>y</em> by itself.

This leaves us with <em>y = -7/9x + 5</em>.

Now our slope is the multiplier or the coefficient of the <em>x</em> term which in this case is -7/9. So the slope is -7/9.

HELP!
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

1.  10 square yards

2.  $9.10

3.  36 girls

4.  20 cherries

5.  159 bracelets

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The area of this figure would be the area of the SQUARE minus the area of the RECTANGLE (taken out).

The middle part is taken out (this is a rectangle).

View this as a square with sides 4 by 4 with a rectangle portion taken out. So the area can be said as:

Area = Area of Whole Square - Area of Middle Rectangle Taken Out

Lets calculate:

Area of Whole Square:

side * side = 4 * 4 = 16

Now,

Area of Middle Rectangle Taken Out:

Length * Width

The length is given as 3

The width would be 4 - two 1 from two sides, that is 4 - 1 - 1 = 2

So, area = 3 * 2 = 6

Area of figure = 16 - 6 = 10 square yards

2.

We have to find 20% of the bill.

The bill was 45.50 and we have to find 20% of 45.50.

We first convert percentage to decimal by dividing by 100:

20% = 20/100 = 0.20

Now we multiply this decimal with the bill to get our desired answer:

0.20 * 45.50 = $9.10

The tip is $9.10

3.

The ratio of boys (b) to girls (g) would be 2 is to 3.

There are 24 boys.

We can set up a ratio (fraction) with boys on top and girls on bottom.

Then we equate it with actual number of boys and girls (let it be g). So the ratio set-up would be:

\frac{2}{3}=\frac{24}{g}

To solve for g, the number of girls, we have to cross multiply and use algebra to solve. The process is shown below:

\frac{2}{3}=\frac{24}{g}\\2*g = 24*3\\2g=72\\g=\frac{72}{2}\\g=36

There are 36 girls in sixth grade

4.

For every "9" lemon, there are "4" cherries.

There are 45 lemons

If we think of "9" lemons as a "box", how many boxes of lemons are there?

45/9 = 5

Similarly, there would be "5" boxes of cherries. But there are "4" cherries per box. So there are:

4 * 5 = 20 cherries

We can also set up a ratio of cherry to lemon as 4 is to 9 and equate it with actual cherries (let it be "c") and lemons (45). Cross multiply and use algebra to solve for cherries ("c"). Algebra process shown below:

\frac{Cherries}{Lemons}=\frac{4}{9}=\frac{c}{45}\\9*c=4*45\\9c=180\\c=\frac{180}{9}\\c=20

See, we have the same answer, 20 cherries!

5.

Number sold total = 14 + 27 + 45 = 86

She still has 73 in her stock

So, she basically started with whatever she now has (73) and whatever she has sold the 3 days (86), that would be:

73 + 86 = 159 bracelets

Tia started with 159 bracelets
