Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total is 9.60 then it would be 1.20x = 9.60 where x = pair of shoelaces.

To work out the problem you have to divide 1.20 from both sides.

1.20x/1.20 = x

9.60/1.20 = 8

Therefore, x = 8; Kesha bought 8 pairs of shoelaces.

A number is multiplied by 4. That result is added to 12. The final number is 40.

NARA [144]

Answer:

B) 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

4x + 12 = 40

4x = 40 -12

4x =28

x = 28/4

x = 7

Write an equation in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to 3x + 2y equals 12 and passes through the point (1,2)

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The equation is y = (2/3)x + (4/3).

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to change the equation into slope-intecept formula to find its gradient (slope) :

$3x + 2y = 12$

$2y = - 3x + 12$

$y = - \frac{3}{2}x + 6$

Given that when a line is perpendicular to the other line, their slope value multiplied, will form -1. Next, we have to find the slope for line :

$m1 \times m2 = - 1$

$- \frac{3}{2} \times m2 = - 1$

$m2 = - 1 \div - \frac{3}{2}$

$m2 = \frac{2}{3}$

Lastly, we have to subatitute the x and y values into the equation, to find its intercept value :

$y = \frac{2}{3}x + b$

$let \: x = 1,y = 2$

$2 = \frac{2}{3} (1) + b$

$b = 2 - \frac{2}{3}$

$b = \frac{4}{3}$

$y = \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{4}{3}$

In circle N, KL ≅ ML. What is the measure of ?

pentagon [3]

This is the concept of geometry, for us to get the value of JM we will requires to get the value of x first;
From the diagram we have been told that;
KL=ML
KL=7x+7
ML=8x-3
thus;
8x-3=7x+7
collecting the like terms we get;
8x-7x=7+3
x=10
But, JM=13x+2
substituting the value of x in JM we get:
JM=13(10)+2
JM=130+2
JM=132
The answer is 132°
