Which of the following lines is perpendicular to the line Y = 3x -4

andriy [413]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a line is perpendicular to another, their slopes will be opposite reciprocal. For example, 1 would be -1, -3 would be $\frac{1}{3}$ , and $\frac{5}{1}$ would be -5. The equation is written in slope-intercept form:

$y=mx+b$

m is the slope, so find the equation with the opposite reciprocal of 3, $-\frac{1}{3}$ :

$y=-\frac{1}{3} x+4$ is the only option with the correct slope, so the answer is D.

Answer:

$f(g(x))=\dfrac{|x|+1-||x|-1|}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The most straightforward way is direct substitution of g(x) for x in f(x):

$f(g(x))=\dfrac{|x|+1-||x|-1|}{2}$

2 2/5 in kilometers in 3 3/4 minutes unit rate

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = r * t Divide both sides by t

r = d / t

d = distance = 2.25 km

t = time = 3 3/4 minutes = 3.75 minutes

r = 2.25 / 3.75

r = 0.6 km / minute

r = 3/5 km / minute

If the units are different than those given, please state them underneath my answer. I'll get to it as soon as I see your comment.
