Compare the line passing through the points (−3, −11) and (6, 4) to the line given by the equation y=35x−6.
Aleks04 [339]
Let
<span>A------> (−3, −11)
B------>  (6, 4)

step 1
find the slope m point A and point B
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)-----> </span>m=(4+11)/(6+3)----> m=15/9---> 5/3

step 2
with m=5/3 and point B (6, 4)  find the equation of a line
y-y1=m*(x-x1)-----> y-4=(5/3)*(x-6)---> y=(5/3)x-6

case <span>a. they have the same slope------> is not correct
because
</span><span>y=35x−6------> the slope m=35
</span>y=(5/3)x-6---> the slope m =5/3

case <span>b. they have the same x-intercept.----> is not correct
because
</span>the x-intercept is for y=0

y=35x−6-----> 0=35x-6----> 35x=6-----> x=6/35
the x-intercept is the point (6/35,0)

y=(5/3)x-6----> 0=(5/3)x-6----> (5/3)x=6---> x=18/5
the x-intercept is the point (18/5,0)

case <span>c. the two lines are perpendicular. do. they have the same y-intercept-----> is nor correct
because

if two lines are perpendicular
m1*m2=-1-------> </span><span>this condition is not satisfied
</span>
the y intercept is for x=0

y=35x−6-------> y=-6
the y intercept is the point (0,-6)

y=(5/3)x-6-----> y=-6
the y intercept is the point (0,-6)

 they have the same y-intercept but the two lines are not perpendicular

Lisa uses her hair dryer daily dryer uses 1500 watts. it take 10 mintes to dry her hair each time she uses it. how much would it
Volgvan

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is $11.55 for the week.

1) Since 1 watt is 0.001 kilowatts, 1500 watts is 1.5 kilowatts.

2) Multiply that by 7 for the week and that equals 10.5.

3) It takes her 10 minutes each day, so it takes 70 minutes per week, that is also 1.1 hours.

4) Multiply 10.5 kilowatts by 1.1 hours and you get 11.55.

5) The answer is $11.55 per week to dry Lisa's hair.

How do you calculate a score
dem82 [27]

Answer:

You divide what you got by how many questions there are. For example, if you got 18/20, you'd divide 18 by 20 with a calculator. Which would be 0.9, then you move the decimal over 2 times making it 90, so you got 90%

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve. −3/5x +1/5 &gt; 7/20
Reika [66]
-3/5x + 1/5 > 7/20
-3/5x > 7/20 - 1/5
-3/5x > 7/20 - 4/20
-3/5x > 3/20
x < 3/20 * - 5/3
x < -15/60 reduces to -1/4
