-9y=-3x+216
y=1/3x-24
m=-3
y=-3x+16 is perpendicular to the line

First, convert it to slope intercept form. That would make it: 

y= \frac{1}{3} x-24

Then, change the slope by finding its negative reciprocal, since it is perpendicular

y= -3x-24

a concession stand is selling hot dogs and hamburgers during a game. at halftime they sold a total of 78 hot dogs and hamburgers
lara31 [8.8K]
Let x=number of hamburgers sold and y=number of hot dogs sold.
Step 1)
cost of burgers X # of burgers + cost of hotdogs X # of hotdogs=$ collected               1.5x + 1.25y=105.5

step 2)
# of burgers sold + number of hot dogs sold = total number of items sold
     x + y = 78

step 3)  solve for y in the second equation
     y = 78 - x

step 4)  substitute y = 78 - x in the first equation for the value of y and solve for x
     1.5x + 1.25(78 - x)=105.50
     1.5 x + 97.5 - 1.25x=105.50
     .25x = 8
     x = 32


step 5)  plug in our value for x in the second equation and solve for y
     x+y=78
     32+y=78
     y=46

answer       32 hamburgers and 46 hot dogs

Help on number 3 only use Pythagorean thym I give brainliest
enot [183]

Answer: 10.8

Step-by-step explanation: the pythagorean theorem is A sqaured or A^2 + B^2 or B squared equals C^2 or C squared so 10 squared as is the first number is 100 and 4 squared as is the second number is 16 add the two to get 116 but since your answer is squared you need to take the square root which means your answer is 10.7703296143 but since your rounding to the tenths place your answer is 10.8

<h2>○=> <u>Solution (6)</u> :</h2>

Ratio of two numbers = 2:3

The larger number = 6

Let the smaller number be x.

Which means :

=\tt 2 : 3 \:  =  \:  x  : 6

= \tt \frac{2}{3}  =  \frac{x}{6}

=\tt 2 \times 6 = 3 \times x

=\tt 12 = 3x

=\tt x =  \frac{12}{3}

\hookrightarrow\color{plum}\tt \: x = 4

▪︎<u>Therefore, the smaller number = 4</u>

<h2>○=> <u>Solution (7)</u> :</h2>

36 compared to 6 = \tt \frac{36}{6}

Let the number be x.

Which means :

= \tt \frac{36}{6}  =  \frac{x}{3}

=\tt  \frac{36 \div 2}{6 \div 2}  =  \frac{x}{3}

=\tt  \frac{36}{6}  =  \frac{18}{3}

▪︎Therefore, the fractional number \tt \frac{18}{3} is equal to \tt \frac{36}{6}.

<h2>○=> <u>Solution (8)</u> :</h2>

Number of Rose's for 24 red Rose's = 6

This can be written in a ratio as 24:6

Number of roses = 8

Let the number of red roses for these roses be x.

Which means :

=\tt  \frac{24}{6}  =  \frac{x}{8}

=\tt 24 \times 8 = 6 \times x

=\tt 192 = 6x

=\tt x =  \frac{192}{6}

\hookrightarrow \color{plum}\tt x = 32

▪︎Therefore, 32 red roses are there if there are 8 roses.

<h2>○=> <u>Solution (9)</u> :</h2>

Number of children for 2 adults = 7

This can be written in a ratio as 7:2

Number of children in the plaza = 21

Let the number of adults be x.

Which means :

= \tt \frac{7}{2}  =  \frac{21}{x}

=\tt7 \times x = 2 \times 21

=\tt 7x = 42

=\tt x  =  \frac{42}{7}

\hookrightarrow \color{plum}\tt \: x = 6

▪︎Therefore, 6 adults were there in the plaza.

<h2>○=> <u>Solution (10)</u> :</h2>

Cost of 12 pencils = P60

Cost of 1 pencil :

= \tt \frac{60}{12}

=\tt P5

Thus, the cost of one pencil = P5

Cost of 25 pencils :

= Cost of one pencil × 25

=\tt 5 \times 25

\color{plum}=\tt \: P  \: 125

▪︎Therefore, the cost of 25 pencils = P125
