Answer:

slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 5 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{2}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} } = 2

At the beach this weekend, the ratio of sandcastles to kites was 3 to 5. If there were 15 kites spotted, how many items were see
Gelneren [198K]

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of sandcastles to kites was 3 to 5 so if 15 kites were spotted that meant that the 5 was multiplied by 3 so then we multiply the 3 by 3. Now there are 9 sandcastles and 15 kites so now we add 9 to 15 to figure out how many items were seen in all. Nine added to 15 equals 24 which means that 24 items were seen in total.

At a park, there are 38 people playing tennis some or playing doubles and some are playing singles there are 13 matches in progr
dmitriy555 [2]
X = number of singles matches
y = number of doubles mnathes

so we have the equation x + y = 13.......(1)

also 

2x + 4y  = 38 ...........(2)

(1) and (2) are the required equations

b)  Find how many maches are in progress by solivng the above equations:-

x + y  =  13   multiply this by -2:-
-2x - 2y = -26
2x + 4y = 38   Adding to removes the  terms in x:-

2y = 12

y = 6  

so x = 13-6 = 7

So the answer is  6 double matches and 7 singles are in progress.
