Step-by-step explanation:

Let people behind you=x

People ahead of you will be x+2

Total number of people in the line(including you) = x+(x+2)+1 = 2x+3

Also, 2x+3=3x

So x=3

People ahead = x+2 = 5

People behind = x = 3

Which of the following could be the equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x−5y=7?
Over [174]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert the equation to slope-intercept form:

2x - 5y = 7

-5y = -2x + 7

y = 2/5 x - 7/5

So the slope of the given line  is 2/5.

So the slope of a perpendicular line will be -1/ 2/5 = -5/2.

Take B:

5x + 2y = 3

2y = -5x + 3

y = -5/2.

So its B.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaat????

Answer:

  7 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

For a difference in price of $58 -25 = $33, a customer gets a difference in number of 5 -2 = 3 pizzas. Then a pizza costs $33/3 = $11.

The cost of 2 pizzas is $22, so the delivery charge is $25 -22 = $3.

For $80, after subtracting the $3 delivery charge, $77 goes to the cost of pizzas. For that amount, $77/$11 = 7 pizzas will be delivered.
