Answer:

  x = -2 or -9

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the values of x such that the line defined by the two points (2x+3, x+2) and (0, 2) is perpendicular to the line defined by the two points (x+2, -3-3x) and (8, -1).

<h3>Slope</h3>

The slope of a line is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

Using the formula, the slopes of the two lines are ...

  m1 = (2 -(x+2))/(0 -(2x+3)) = (-x)/(-2x-3) = x/(2x +3)

and

  m2 = (-1 -(-3-3x))/(8 -(x+2)) = (2+3x)/(6 -x)

<h3>Perpendicular lines</h3>

The slopes of perpendicular lines have product of -1:

  \dfrac{x}{2x+3}\cdot\dfrac{2+3x}{6-x}=-1\\\\x(3x+2)=(2x+3)(x-6)\qquad\text{multiply by $(2x+3)(6-x)$}\\\\3x^2+2x=2x^2-9x-18\qquad\text{eliminate parentheses}\\\\x^2+11x+18=0\qquad\text{put in standard form}\\\\(x+2)(x+9)=0\qquad\text{factor}

<h3>Solutions</h3>

The values of x that satisfy this equation are x = -2 and x = -9. The attached graphs show the lines for each of these cases.

How many quarter, a pound burgers can Kristina make out<br> of 75 pounds of ground beef?<br> 1
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

1 quarter pound = 0.25 of a pound.

Give that:

Total amount of ground beef =  pound

From 3.5 pound of beef we have to make burgers using 0.25 pound of beef in one burger

We have to find how many burgers can be made:

We have to divide 3.5 pound by 0.25 pound

i.e,

⇒14 quarter pounds burger can be made.

Therefore, 14 quarter pound burgers can George make out of 3 1/2 pounds of ground beef

Let f(x)=x^2 and g(x)=(x-3)^2+7 match up the correct transormations that are needed to transform the graph of f(x) to the graph
pentagon [3]

The transformations are vertical translation 7 units up.horizontal translation 3 units to the left

We have given that the equations

let f(x)=x^2 and g(x)=(x-3)^2+7

We have to determine the correct transformation,

<h3>What is the vertical translation?</h3>

Vertically translating a graph is equivalent to shifting the base graph up or down in the direction of the y-axis. A graph is translated to k units vertically by moving each point on the graph k units vertically.

Notice that the addition of 2 units to the variable x in the exponent involves a horizontal shift to the left in 2 units.

Notice as well that subtraction of 4 units to the functional expression involves a vertical shift downwards in 4 units.
