Write an equation for the line perpendicular to 2x−3y = 5 and containing (−2, 1).

1 answer:

8 0

Hello:<span>
the equation is : y = ax+b
the slope is a : a×(2/3) = -1......( perpendicular to a line : 2x-3y =7 with a slope of 2/3 because : y = (2/3)x-7/3)
a = -3/2 y=(-3/2)x+b
the line that passes through (-2, 1) : 1 = (-3/2)(-2)+b
b = -2
<span> the equation is : y = (-3/2)x-2</span></span>

Answer:

3.75 L

Step-by-step explanation:

3 liters / 36 m^2 = x liters / 9 x 5 m^2

3 liters / 36 m^2 = x liters / 45 m^2

(45)(3) = (x)(36)

(135) = (x)(36)

x = (135)/(36)

x= 3.75 L

Rhonda had $300 to buy supplies for the animal shelter. She bought 8 bags of dog food and 11 leashes. Each bag of food cost $25.

Answer:

47.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We have 8 bags of dog food and each costs $25.19

8(25.19)=201.52

And we have 11 leashes each costing $4.65.

11(4.65)=51.15

We add these totals up.

201.52+51.15=252.67

We subtract this from 300 to see how much is left.

300-252.67=47.33

Rhonda had $47.33 left after her purchases.

Have a wonderful day! :D

A famous basketball player scored 97 points in a high scool game, breaking a national record. She made 43 more 2-point baskets t

ziro4ka [17]

X - 3pt baskets (he reaches 3x points)
y - 2pt baskets (he reaches 2y points)

We know, that y=x+43

97 - 1 free throw = 97 - 1 = 96
Sum of points: 96

3x + 2y = 96. Substitute to "y" an expression "x+43" :

3x + 2(x+43)=96
3x+2x+86=96
5x=10 |:5
x=2

So y=x+43=2+43=45

He has made 2 three points baskets and 45 two points baskets
