We have a line y = 1/3x -6
We want a line that is perpendicular to this line
Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
1/3 * m = -1
3 * 1/3 *m = -1 * 3
m = -3
The slope of the perpendicular line is -3
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -3x+b
We have a point on the line ( 7 ,-23)
Substitute this point into the equation
-23 = -3(7)+b
-23 = -21+b
Add 21 to each side
-23+21 = -21+21+b
-2 = b
y = -3x-2
In slope intercept form, the line perpendicular passing through (7,-23) is
y = -3x-2
Let
be the point on the ground to with the 18 foot guy is anchored and
the point on the ground to with the 21 foot guy is anchored.
We can conclude that the <span>the two wires at the points where they are anchored are
21 feet apart. Check the procedures in the picture attached.</span>
This is pretty simple. All you have to do is make the first and second fraction share a denominator by multiplying them by each other.
6 <span>• 9 = 54
Then multiply each numerator by the opposing denominator.
1 </span><span>• 9 = 9
2 </span><span>• 6 = 12
Here are the new fractions:
9/54
12/54
Now add the 9 and 12 together.
9 + 12 = 21
The complete fraction:
21/54
Subtract 21 from 54 so you can get the remainder of the sweater.
54 - 21 = 33
This is the remainder fraction:
33/54
Can you simplify this? Yes, of course! They can both be divided by 3!
11/18
That is the remainder of the sweater. But you still have to divide it in half! After all, Linda only knitted half of the remaining sweater. Dividing it in half can be done just by multiplying the denominator by 2.
11/36
That should be your answer! Apologies if I got something wrong.</span>
The question is asking to choose among the following choices that states the question that represent the said sentence in your question and base on the fact and further understanding about the said sentence, I would say that the answer would be ((x+4)/2)-3(4/x). I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more
