Answer:
Choices 1 and 4 are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find what the slope of the line is. That way, we can find out which possible answers are perpendicular to it:
Since we now have the slope, we need the negative reciprocal of it. Remember: if x is the slope, it's negative reciprocal will be 
. Therefore, if the line's slope is 3, then we need to find answers with a slope of
.
The first answer is correct, as you have marked. The second answer, while written a little weirdly, does show the slope as 3, which we know as wrong. The third choice is not correct, however. This equation is written in point-slope form, where
. The only variable we have to worry about is m, which, in the third choice, is 3. The fourth answer is correct, which sounds weird at first. Let's put that equation into slope-intercept form:
Equations like these can be real sneaky, so it's important not to jump to conclusions with them.
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4(2-x)+13=2x+3
distribute the 4.
8 - 4x + 13 = 2x + 3
combine like terms.
21 - 4x = 2x + 3
18 = 6x
divide by 6.
x = 3
check.
4(2 - 3) + 13 = 2(3) + 3
4(-1) + 13 = 6 + 3
-4 + 13 = 9
9 = 9
correct!
Correct Question:
At a bake sale, plates of cookies, p, are sold for $5 each. The amount of money from the sale of cookies is expressed as dollars, d. Which equation represents the earnings of the bake sale?
1. p = 5d
2. d = p + 5
3. d = 5p
Answer:
3. d = 5p
Step-by-step explanation:
As one plate of cookies price is 5 $
The d is expressed as numbers of dollars which are earned.
Earnings = d = 5 x number of plates sold (p)
therefore
d = 5p
Answer:
No, not a function
Step-by-step explanation:
Functions cannot have two or more same domain and different range. (3,3) and (3,9) have same domain and different range.
