Train tracks are made of metal. Consequently, they expand when it's warm and shrink when it's cold. When riding in a train, you hear the clickety-clack of the wheels going over small gaps left in the tracks to allow for this expansion. Suppose you were a beginner at laying railroad tracks and forgot to put in the gaps. Instead, you made a track 01 mile long that was firmly fixed at each end. On a hot day, suppose the track expanded by A = 8 feet and therefore buckled up in the middle, creating a triangle.

answer: $201

step-by-step explanation: to get the answer, you first get 3 nieces that he sold and multiply it by 67 and get $201, so he earned $201 selling his nieces.

5x + 3y = - 4

step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in standard form is

ax + by = c ( a is a positive integer and b, c are integers )

express the line first of all in slope- intercept form

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

to calculate m use the gradient formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, - 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, - 8)

m = = -

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

using (4, - 8 ), then

- 8 = - + c ⇒ c = -

y = - x - ← in slope-intercept form

multiply all terms by 3 to eliminate the fractions

3y = - 5x - 4 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 3y = - 4 ← in standard form

3

step-by-step explanation:

because where the point where the 2 lines intersect is (3,-1) the x value is 3
