The equation of the perpendicular line is y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

<h3>How to determine the line equation?</h3>

The equation is given as

y = 7x + 14

Also, from the question

The point is given as

Point = (3, -7)

The equation of a line can be represented as

y = mx + c

Where

Slope = m

By comparing the equations, we have the following

m = 7

This means that the slope of y = 7x + 14  is 7

So, we have

m = 7

The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals

This means that the slope of the other line is -1/7

The equation of the perpendicular lines is then calculated as

y = m(x - x₁) +y₁

Where

m = -1/7

(x₁, y₁) = (3, -7)

So, we have

y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7

Evaluate

y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7

Add 7 to both sides

y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

Hence, the perpendicular line has an equation of y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

poizon [28]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the PEMDAS

there is a parenthesis and exponents

9/3{(8) - 4)}

Multiply and divide 9/3= 3

Also subtract 8-4 = 4

3{8-4}

3(4)= 12

Bill's recipe for onion soup call for 4.0lb of thinly sliced onions. If an onion has an average mass of 115g, how many onions do
musickatia [10]

Answer:

1. 16\ onions

2. 4,040.91\ kg

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that the average mass of an onion is 115 grams and Bill needs 4.0 pounds.

Then, since 1\ lb=453.592\ g, we can make the following conversion:

(4.0\ lb)(\frac{453.592\ g}{1\ lb})=1,814.37\ g

Then, the number of onions Bill needs is:

(1,814.37\ g)(\frac{1\ onion}{115\ g})=15.77\ onions ≈ 16\ onions

2.  Since 1\ kg=2.20462\ lb, we can make the following conversion:

(11\ lb)(\frac{1\ kg}{2.20462\ lb})=4.98\ kg

 Knowing that all the potatoes sold today at the store bring in $1,420 and 4.98 kilograms of potatoes is $1.75, we can calculate the amount of kilograms the grocery shoppers bought:

(\$1,420)(\frac{4.98\ kg}{\$1.75})=4,040.91\ kg
