For this case, the first thing we are going to do is define the following variables:
 x: Sister points.
 y: George's points.
 We write the following mathematical equation:
 y = 2 * (x-4)
 His sister has 16 points:
 y = 2 * (16-4)
 y = 2 * (12)
 y = 24

 Answer:

 How many points does George have?
 
 George has 24 points.

 What operations are needed to solve this word, and in what order should they be used?

 subtraction and multiplication, in that order

Hi everyone! I have a question!
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

7π

Step-by-step explanation:

SO first find the area of the whole circle

which has a radius of 3

a=πr^2

So 3^2=9

9π

Now the two circles which are the same in area due to having the same radius

so if you plug in the 1 for radius the answer would just be π or 1π

now multiply that by 2 becuase there are 2 identical circles

π*2=2π

Now subtract

9π-2π=7π

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y=3/5xplus 10 and passes through the point (15,-5)?
Allisa [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

a general line equation is

y = ax + b

the original line is

y = 3/5 x + 10

the factor of x is always the slope (inclination of the line).

it is "y change/x change".

the slope of a perpendicular line (angle of 90°) is turning the slope of the original line upside-down and flips the sign.

so, it is -5/3.

we use the point information to get the right "b" for our new line :

-5 = -5/3 × 15 + b

-5 = -5×5 + b

-5 = -25 + b

b = 20

so, the perpendicular line equation going through (15, -5) is

y = -5/3 x + 20
