What is the value of  

 0.25 x + 0.15 y   if   5 x + 3 y = 2?

Answer: 0.25 x + 0.15 y = 0.1

0.05(5 x + 3 y) = 0.05(2)

Find the area of a right isosceles triangle with hypotenuse equal to 24.

A= 144 

A = (1/2) x * x = (1/2)x2

x2 + x2 = 242
Simplify
2 x2 = 576
x2 = 288
We now calculate the area A as follows
A = (1/2)x2 = (1/2) 288 = 144

h = -16t2 + vt + k

The equation above gives the height h, in feet, of a ball t seconds after it is thrown straight up with an initial speed of v feet per second from a height of k feet. Write v in terms of h, t, and k.

v = ((h-k)/t) +16t

Find the equation of the line that passes through the points (-1 , -1) and (-1 , 2).

x = -1

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (2 - (-1)) / (-1 - (-1)) = 3 / 0


The slope is undefined which means the line is perpendicular to the x axis and its equation has the form x = constant. Since both points have equal x coordinates -1, the equation is given by:
