Answer:

The equation is: y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of j is -2. The slope of a line perpendicular to line j has a negative inverse: 1/2. The point is (-8, 3).

Use the point slope form of the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitute:

y - 3 = 1/2(x - (-8))

y - 3 = 1/2x + 4

y = 1/2x + 4 + 3

y = 1/2x + 7

Proof:

Solve for f(x) when x = -8.

f(x) = 1/2x + 7

f(-8) = 1/2(-8) + 7

= -8/2 + 7

= -4 + 7

= 3, giving the point (-8, 3)

I need help working this out

I think in this situation the best method would be a guess and check. You know that there are 8 dimes more than there are nickels. So just keep increasing each number by one until you reach $1.40. If there were 9 dimes and 1 nickels it would add up to $0.95. If there were 10 dimes and 2 nickels, it would add up to $1.10. If there were 11 dimes and 3 nickels, it would add up to $1.25. If there were 12 dimes and 4 nickels, it would add up to $1.40. So your answer is 12 dimes and 4 nickels.

I hope this helped!

In the figure below, L N equals 4 x minus 7 and M O equals 2 x plus 13. For which value of x is the figure a rectangle?
Georgia [21]

For this case we have the following data:


LN = 4x-7

MO = 2x + 13

So that the figure can be a rectangle, its diagonals must be equal, that is, LN = MO

In this way we have:


4x-7 = 2x + 13

Clearing x we have:

4x-2x = 13 + 7 \\2x = 20

x=\frac{20}{2} \\x = 10

Thus, x must be equal to 10 so that the figure is a rectangle.


Answer:


x = 10

Option A
