The two do not save money at the same rate, because if you make common denominators of 20, Anna saves 6 dollars for every 20, while Patrick only saves 5 dollars for every twenty earned. So, Anna ends up saving more than Patrick.

Which equation has a graph that is perpendicular to the graph of -x + 6y = -12?

serious [3.7K]

Answer:

c) 6x + y = -52 is required equation perpendicular to the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation is of the form : y = mx + C.

Here m = slope of the equation.

Two equations are said to be perpendicular if the product of their respective slopes is -1.

Here, equation 1 : -x + 6y = -12

or, 6y = -12 + x

or, y = (x/6) - 2

⇒Slope of line 1 = (1/6)

Now, for equation 2 to be perpendicular:

Check for each equation:

a. x + 6y = -67 ⇒ 6y = -67 - x

or, y = (-x/6) - (67/6) ⇒Slope of line 2 = (-1/6)

but $\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{-1}{6} \neq -1$

b. x - 6y = -52 ⇒ -6y = -52 - x

or, y = (x/6) + (52/6) ⇒Slope of line 2 = (1/6)

but $\frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{6} \neq -1$

c. 6x + y = -52

or, y =y = -52 - 6x ⇒Slope of line 2 = (-6)

$\frac{1}{6} \times (-6) = -1$

Hence, 6x + y = -52 is required equation 2.

d. 6x - y = 52 ⇒ -y = 52 - 6x

or, y = 6x - 52 ⇒Slope of line 2 = (6)

but $\frac{1}{6} \times 6 \neq -1$

Hence, 6x + y = -52 is the only required equation .

Given the graphs of f(x) = x – 1 and g(x) = –x – 7, what is the solution to the equation f(x) = g(x)?

Ghella [55]

Answer:

(-3, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x – 1 and g(x) = –x – 7

f(x) = g(x)

x-1= -x-7
2x= -6
x= -3
f,g= -4
