Gianna, Jada, and Brittney and a bunch of other friends had a horseshoe competition. Jada and Brittney were eliminated after two

rounds because they were too busy texting but Gianna went onto round eight to win 47 pieces of gum. Later, she gave two to each of her friends. She only has 1 remaining. How many friends does she have?

Answer:

23 friends

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of friends she has = x

Total number of gum = 47 pieces

She gave 2 each to her friends, hence:

2x + 1 = 47

2x = 47 - 1

2x = 46

x = 46/2

x = 23

Therefore, the number of friends she has is 23

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-11, 75) and (27, -9).
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

\frac{y__2-y__1}{x__2-x__1}

y = -9 + 75 = 66

x = 27-(-11) = 27 + 11 = 38

slope = 66/28

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (2, 4 and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3y = 6x 3
Maru [420]
Perpendicular line always have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.  Mathematically,

m1*m2=-1

So to be perpendicular to the line given, let's rearrange it to the point slope form of a line...

3y=6x ?3 (not sure what you wanted to type there)

anyway isolating y by dividing both side by three will leave 2x where 2 is the slope.

So for the other line to be perpendicular, m*2=-1, m=-1/2, now we have:

y=-x/2 +b, we can now you the point given to solve for b

4=-2/2 +b

4=-1+b

b=5 so

y=-x/2 +5 or more neatly

y=(10-x)/2
