Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (8,−7) and (−9,7). Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope form, unless it is a vertical or horizontal line.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

y + 7 = (-14/17)(x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want the equation of this line in the point-slope form y - k = m(x - h).

We are given two points (8, -7) and (-9, 7), and may arbitrarily choose one of them to serve as the point (h, k) in the point-slope form shown above.  Then the other point is represented by (x, y) in the point slope form shown above:

Let (h, k) be 8, -7) and let (x, y) be (-9, 7).  Then,  y - k = m(x - h) becomes:

7 - (-7) = m(-9 - 8), so that 14 = m(-17), and the slope is thus m = -14/17

The desired equation is then y + 7 = (-14/17)(x - 8) (which is in point-slope form).  

Another way to get this result would be to find m in the usual way:

          rise           14

m = ------------- = --------- = -14/17 (same as before).

           run           -17

Answers

Answer:

The ladder meets the wall at 17.29 feet from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean Theorem ⇒ a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + b^2 = 18^2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sqrt19[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First we solve for the biggest triangle: using the Pythagorean theorem, (a^2 + b^2 = c^2) we put in the sides,

9^2 + b^2 = 10^2.

solve, 81 + b^2 = 100

then we subtract 81 from both sides. b^2 = 19, and the answer is [tex]\sqrt 19[/tex].

Now we know what the third side is, which is the hypotenuse for the smaller triangle, so we use the Pythagorean theorem again.

4^2 + x^2 = 19.

Solve

16 + x^2 = 19

Subtract 16 from both sides

x^2 = 19

and finally, we take the square root of both sides

x = [tex]\sqrt19[/tex]

Square root of 19 would be your answer

a store sells laptops for 720 each. this price is 20 percent more than what it cost the store to buy each of them. before the next model's release, store employees can purchase any remaining laptops at 23% off the store's cost cost. how much would it cost an employee to purchase one of these laptops at the sale?

Answers

Answer:

462

Step-by-step explanation:

720 is 120% of the store price so to find the store price, we can muliply by the reciprical or 5/6.

720*5/6= 600

The employee can purchase the laptop at 23% off this price or at 77%. Multiply the price by 0.77 to get the employee price.

600*0.77 = 462

The total cost of the laptop at which an employee purchase is 482 and this can be determined by using the unitary method.

Given :

A store sells laptops for 720 each. This price is 20 percent more than what it cost the store to buy each of them. Before the next model's release, store employees can purchase any remaining laptops at 23% off the store's cost.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the total cost of the laptop at which an employee purchase:

Step 1 - The unitary method can be used in order to determine the total cost of the laptop at which an employee purchases.

Step 2 - According to the given data, 720 is the 120% cost at which the store sells. So, the value of the 100% cost is:

[tex]=\dfrac{720}{120}\times 100[/tex]

= 600

Step 3 - Now, the employee can purchase the laptop at a 23% discount that is 77% of the original cost.

Step 4 - So, the total cost of the laptop at which an employee purchase is:

[tex]=\dfrac{77}{100}\times 600[/tex]

= 462

Step-by-step explanation:

The original cost of the product was $90.  There was a 162% markup.  In order to get the selling price, I like to take away 100 percent and simply add original price+(original price*62%).  After taking away 100%, I am left with 62%.  I then multiply the original cost ($90) by the remaining percent (62%), getting 55.8.  Following the steps that I originally wrote, I now add 90 to 55.8, getting 145.8.

Let b be the number of blue beads and g the number of green beads that Giovanni can use for a belt.

He's supposed to use a total of between 70 and 74 beads, so

70 ≤ b + g ≤ 74

The ratio of green beads to blue beads is g/b, and this ratio has to be between 1.4 and 1.6, so

1.4 ≤ g/b ≤ 1.6

For completeness, Giovanni must use at least one of either bead color, so it sort of goes without saying that this system must also include the conditions

b ≥ 0

g ≥ 0

(These conditions "go without saying" because they are implied by the others. g/b is a positive number, so either both b and g are positive, or they're both negative. But they must both be positive, because otherwise b + g would be negative. I would argue for including them, though.)
