Answer:

- 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find the slope of the line.

2-(-4) 6

——— = — = 3

2-0 2

To find the slope of the line that is perpendicular to that line, you take the opposite reciprocal of the slope.

-1/3

How do I figure this out??

The function is divided by 12, you would find it out by dividing 120 by 10 and getting 12, if you wanted to check your answer, you would do 84 divided by 7 which is 12. the answer to 12 is 1 and 24 is 2. hope this helped :))

find x if the distance between points L and M is 15 and point M is located in the first quadrant. L=(-6,2) M=(x,2)

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Therefore,

$x = 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Let,

point L( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -6 , 2)

point M( x₂ , y₂ )≡ (x , 2)

l(AB) = 15 units (distance between points L and M)

To Find:

x = ?

Solution:

Distance formula between Two points is given as

$l(LM)^{2} = (x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}$

Substituting the values we get

$15^{2}=(x--6)^{2}+(2-2)^{2}\\\\225=(x+6)^{2}$

Square Rooting we get

$(x+6)=\pm \sqrt{225}=\pm 15\\\\x+6 = 15\ or\ x+6 = -15\\\\x= 9\ or\ x = -21$

As point M is located in the first quadrant

x coordinate and y coordinate are positive

So x = -21 DISCARDED

Hence,

$x = 9$

Therefore,

$x = 9$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The bottom-right most cell tells us that the total number of students that responded to the survey is 310 students.

To find the answer, we can go through each choice.

A. Females taking Geometry

Row 1 Column 2 tells us that 53 females are taking geometry. 53/310 is about 17%.

B. Females taking Algebra II.

Row 1 Colume 3 tells us that 62 females are taking Algebra II. 62/310 is 20%.

C. Males taking Geometry.

Row 2 Colume 2 tells us that 59 males are taking Geometry. 59/310 is about 19%. Choice C is correct.

D. Males taking Algebra I.

44 out of the total 310 respondents are male and is taking Algebra I. 44/310 is about 14%.

A game decreased in price by 2/3. After the reduction it was priced at £13. What was the original price of the game?

Archy [21]

Answer:

$x = 39$

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the given conditions, write: $x=\frac{13}{1-\frac{2}{3}}$

Find common denominator and write numerators above common denominator: $x=\frac{\frac{13}{3-2} }{3}$

Calculate the sum or difference: $x=\frac{\frac{13}{1} }{3}$

Divide the fraction by multiplying its reciprocal: $x=13*3$

Calculate the product or quotient: $x=39$

Answer: $x=39$
