Answer:

y=(1/4)x + 9 OR y=x/4 +9

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have a slope/gradient of -1/n

Because the slope of this line is -4, the slope of a line perpendicular to it would be 1/4.

y=(1/4)x+b

(0,9) is the y-intercept, so b = 9

y=(1/4)x + 9 OR y=x/4 +9

Bill and Joe leave their house at the same time heading in opposite directions. If Bill is driving three times faster than Joe a

Arisa [49]

The problem statement gives you the relationship between their speeds, and it gives you information you can use to find their total speed. You solve this by finding the total speed, then the proportion of that belonging to Bill.

The total speed is (120 mi)/(3 h) = 40 mi/h.

The speed ratio is ...

... Bill : Joe = 3 : 1

so the speed ratio Bill : Total is ...

... 3 : (3+1) = 3:4.

Bill's speed is (3/4)×(40 mi/h) = 30 mi/h.

Determine whether the triangles are similar by AA, SSS, SAS, or not similar

Anton [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Δ JKL ~ Δ JHG , then

$\frac{LJ}{GJ}$ = $\frac{KJ}{HJ}$

$\frac{95}{68}$ ≠ $\frac{87}{72}$ ⇒ triangles are not similar

Is 0.8 a rationol number

olga55 [171]

Hello.

The answer is: yes

A rational number is any number that can be repesented as a fraction. So every integer is also a rational number (because it can be written as a fraction with the denominator 1)
