Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/3)x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-3x-6

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-3

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-3 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/3

step 3

With m=1/3 and the point (-3,3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y-3=(1/3)(x+3)

y=(1/3)x+1+3

y=(1/3)x+4 -----> equation that represent the new path

the amusement park charges a fee of $7.50 and $0.75 for every ride. the carnival charges a fee of $10.00 and$0.50 per ride. when
andrew11 [14]
A equation to represent this situation is:

0.75x+7.50=0.50x+10.00

Now we have to find x.

Step 1: Subtract 0.5x from both sides.

<span><span><span><span>0.75x</span>+7.5</span>−<span>0.5x</span></span>=<span><span><span>0.5x</span>+10</span>−<span>0.5x</span></span></span><span><span><span>0.25x</span>+7.5</span>=10

</span>Step 2: Subtract 7.5 from both sides.

0.25x+7.5−7.5=10−7.50.25x=2.5

Step 3: Divide both sides by 0.25.

<span><span><span>0.25x/</span>0.25</span>=<span>2.5/<span>0.25

</span></span></span>Answer:

<span>x=<span>10</span></span>

3. What is the measure of angle B from the right triangle below?
Talja [164]

Answer:

angle B = 78.46°

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the cosine ratio

cosB=\frac{2}{10} =0.2

B=cos^{-1} (0.2)=78.46^{0}

Hope this helps
