Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

the line is exactly opposite like a mirror image when it is perpendicular,

so the gradient of the first line is 1 (because there is no number beside x, the gradient would be 1), that means the opposite of 1 would be -1.

The answer is -1

Answer:

-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a line can be written y = mx + b where m is the slope.

y = x + 5 can be written as y = 1x + 5 which shows that the slope is 1.

If the slope of a line  is m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is -1/m.

So the required slope is -1/1 = -1.

Isandro and Yvette each have a calculator. Yvette starts at 100 and subtracts 7 each time. Isandro starts at 0 and adds 3 each t
Talja [164]

Answer: <u>30</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Yvette- <em>100-7</em>

Isandro- <em>0+3</em>

1.) I'm going to speed up the process and multiply by 5.

Yvette: <em>100-7</em>

7  × 5 = 35

100-35= 65

65-35= 30

Isandro: <em>0+3 </em>

3 × 5 = 15

0+15= 15

15+15=<em> </em>30

2.) If they keep going on this pattern they will have the same number on the 10 round.

1. Find the inverse of the one-to-one function f(x)= 6x-7 / 5
Elenna [48]
Rewrite it as y=6x-7/5

Flip the x and y
x=6y-7/5

Solve
5x=6y-7
5x+7=6y
5/6x+7/6=y

f^-1(x)=5/6x+7/6

LenKa [72]
A) a customer would pay $1.60 for 1 pound of apples. (To solve, plug in “1” for “p” and find c))

B) 8.5 pounds of apples would cost $13.60. (To solve, plug in 8.5 for p and find c)

C) If a customer pays $5.20, they will have purchased 3.25 pounds of apples. (To solve, plug in 5.2 for c and solve for p)
