We are given : $168 raised for washing 24 cars and $280 raised for washing 40 cars.

We know the rate formula.

Rate = Total amount ÷ Total numbers.

Let us find value of each rate for  the given problem.

Rate 1: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $168 ÷ 24 = $7.

Rate 2: Total amount ÷ Total numbers = $280 ÷ 40 = $7.

We can clearly see that Rate 1 is equal to Rate 2, that is $7.

So, we can say rates are equivalent.

Plaese help !!!<br> 5/7m=15
Darina [25.2K]

\dfrac{5}{7}m = 15

Multiply both sides by 7/5.

\dfrac{7}{5} \times \dfrac{5}{7}m = \dfrac{7}{5} \times 15

\dfrac{35}{35} m = \dfrac{7 \times 15}{5}

\dfrac{35}{35} m = \dfrac{7 \times 3 \times 5}{5}

m = \dfrac{7 \times 3}{1}

m = 21

What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to the line y – 4 = –2/3(x – 6) and passes thro
Kaylis [27]
Lets write the given equation in the y = mx + c form 
y - 4 = -2/3(x-6)
y - 4 = -2/3x + 4
y = -2/3x + 8
therefore the slope is -2/3 and intercept is +8
the perpendicular line passes through x = -2 and y = -2
then if the given graph has a slope of -2/3 the line that is perpendicular to that should have the reciprocal of the gradient and should be in the opposite direction. So m = +3/2
lets substitute x,y and m values for the new perpendicular line
y =mx + c
-2 = 3/2 * -2 +c
-2 = -3 +c
c = -2 +3 
c = 1
Therefore the equation for the perpendicular line is 
y = 3/2x + 1
