Solve this and explain it for me

Mathematics
1 answer:
Citrus2011 [14]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

1 year.

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an expression for each in terms of x, where x is the number of years gone by.

for type a, it starts at 5 feet, and grows 9 inches per year.

so 5 + 9x = total height after x years

for type b, it starts at 8 feet and grows 6 inches per year, so 8 + 6x = total height after x years.

we want to find after how many years will they have the same so set them equal to each other and solve for x.

9x + 5 = 6x + 8

3x = 3

x = 1

Cedar point is an amusement park located in Sandusky, OH. It's collection of 112 rides is the largest in the world. Of the rides
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

 32 Roller Coasters

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 112 rides in Cedar Point.

\frac{2}{7} of these rides are roller coasters.

In Algebraic Word Problems, the term "OF" means Multiplication.

Number of Roller Coasters = \frac{2}{7} of 112

                                          =\frac{2}{7} X 112

                                          =2 x 16

                                          =32

There are 32 Roller Coasters in Cedar's point's collection of rides.

2) Which equation could represent a line that is perpendicular to y= -2x +<br> 4?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Perpendicular lines have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the given line.

For example, if a given line has the slope 3/2, the the perpendicular line would have the slope -2/3.

For the given line: y = 4x - 7, the perpendicular line would have a slope of -1/4

There isn't enough info in the question to determine the y-intercept. Literally, any y-intercept could work and the line would still be perpendicular. Is the line supposed to pass through a certain point?

Your answer would be something like: y = -1/4 x + b

b is the y-intercept...if your question paper is multiple choice, choose the answer with the slope of -1/4. If it's supposed to pass through a certain point (x,y) replace x and y with the values in that point and solve for b to get the y-intercept.
