Answer:

The equation would be y = 2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, we first need to find the slope of the line between (-2, 5) and (2, 3). In order to do this, we use the slope formula.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (3 - 5)/(2 - -2)

m = -2/4

m = -1/2

Now that we have the original line with a slope of -1/2, we can tell a perpendicular line would have a slope of 2. This is because perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Now we can use that slope and the given point in point-slope form to get the answer. Be sure to solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 7 = 2(x + 5)

y + 7 = 2x + 10

y = 2x + 3

Answer:

    = 4 1/6 ---------------> final answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1 2/3 cup of sugar  

That is : 5/3 cups of sugar for 1 cookie recipe

So for 1 recipe ------------- 5/3 cups of sugar

hence for 2 1/2 recipe ---------------> (5/3) * (5/2)

         = 25/6

          = 4 1/6 ---------------> final answer

If a worker can do his job in 5 hours, and a student can do the same job in 8 hours, what part of the work is left to finish aft
Aleks [24]

Answer:

Part of work left to finish after two work hours is 7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we need to calculate their joint work rate

That will be;

1/(1/5 + 1/8) = 1/(13/40) = 40/13

This means that they will complete the task in 40/13 hours

1 whole part takes 40/13

x part will take 2 hours

x * 40/13 = 2

40x = 26

x = 26/40

So the part that will be completed in two hours is 26/40

This means that the part left to complete will be:

1 - 26/40 = 14/40 = 7/20
