Answer:
The perpendicular line is:
y = 1/3 x + 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation can be reduced to its slope-intercept form as shown below:
3x + 9y = 8y - 2
subtract 8 y from both sides
3 x + y = -2
subtract 3 x from both sides
y = - 3 x -2
therefore we know that the slope of this line is -3, and then, a perpendicular line to it must have slope given by the "opposite of the reciprocal" of this slope. That is, the slope of any perpendicular line to this one must be: 1/3
We use this slope to find the equation of the line passing through the point (13. 5)
y = 1/3 x + b
passing through (13, 5) means:
5 = 1/3 (13) + b
therefore, we can find b from the above equation
b = 5 - 13/3 = 15/3 - 13/3 = 2/3
Then the equation of this perpendicular line is:
y = 1/3 x + 2/3
Answer: x = 0 y = –3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this system by substitution.
use the second equation as a value for x.
Then substitute that value in place of x in the first equation and solve for y.
6x - 5y = 15 becomes
6(y + 3) - 5y = 15 Distribute 6 × parentheses
6y + 18 - 5y = 15 combine like terms
6y -5y + 18 = 15
y + 18 = 15 Subtract 18 from both sides.
y =15 -18
y = –3
Use this value for y in either equation to solve for x
6x - 5(-3) = 15
6x + 15 = 15 Subtract 15 from both sides, divide by 6 (seems silly!)
x = 0
OR in he second equation,
x = -3 + 3
Again, x = 0
He bought 3 scoops, each costing $1.19
The cost of the three scoops= 3*1.19= $3.57
Total cost of scoops and toppings is $4.55
Cost of toppings only= 4.55-3.57= $0.98
Each topping costs $0.49
Therefore number of toppings bought= 0.98/0.49= 2
Answer: 2 toppings
