Answer:
B. y = 1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is -3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(-3) = 1/3. This eliminates choices A and C.
We can find the y-intercept (b) if we use the given point values in the equation ...
y = 1/3x +b
we get ...
-2 = (1/3)(-6) +b
-2 = -2 +b . . . simplify
0 = b . . . . . . . add 2
So, the equation of the perpendicular line through the given point is ...
y = 1/3x . . . . matches choice B
_____
<em>Alternate solution method</em>
You can try the given point in the given equations. You will find that only the equation of choice B will work.
A3=3
a4=5
a5=8
This sequence has properties similar to those of the Fibonacci sequence.
Answer:
B. Multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
1+3x+(x*4)
1+3x+4x
You are multiplying x and 4
Answer:
120 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
1 gallon = 8 pints
15 gallons x 8 is 120 pints
There's two ways to do this.
The first way:
Work out the amount of sugar needed to make one cake, and then multiply that by 7.
30 grams ÷ 4 cakes = 7.5 grams for 1 cake.
7.5 grams × 7 cakes = 52.5 grams for 7 cakes.
The second way:
Work out the ratio of sugar:cake by doing 7 ÷ 4, and then multiplying that value by 30.
7 cakes ÷ 4 cakes = 1.75
1.75 × 30 grams = 52.5 grams for 7 cakes.
Either way, the answer is 52.5 grams.
