In the question, they give you the formula for speed...

speed = distance / time

They also give you the distance and the time, so all we have to do is stick them into the equation...

speed =  3 2/3 Km / 1/3 hour
speed = 3 2/3 / 1/3

To divide the fractions, first we need to convert 3 2/3 into an improper fraction

3 2/3 = 11/3

now we multiply 11/3 x the reciprocal of the divisor 1/3.  The reciprocal just means flip the numerator and denominator

speed = 11/3 x 3/1
speed = 33/3
speed = 11 Km/hour

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to -2/5x-7 and passes through (4,-1)?
alukav5142 [94]

Step-by-step explanation:

maybe this is not the full expression, as you wrote the line equation in a funny way.

I understand the following :

the line is

y = (-2/5)×x - 7

perpendicular means crossing at a right angle (90 degrees).

the slope of the original line is -2/5.

as in every line equation, the slope is the factor of x. and it expresses the ratio y/x indicating the amount of units y is changing, when x changes a certain amount of units (e.g. when going from one point on the line to another).

the perpendicular slope turns the original y/x ratio upside-down, and also flips the sign.

so, it is 5/2.

the equation for the perpendicular line looks like

y = (5/2)×x + b

now what is b ?

for this we use the specified point on the line : (4, -1)

and we put these values as x and y into the equation :

-1 = (5/2)×4 + b = 5×2 + b = 10 + b

b = -11

and so, the full equation of the perpendicular line is

y = (5/2)×x - 11

- Which expression shows 50 + 30 written as a product of two factors?
asambeis [7]

Option 4 is the answer.

50+30

=80

10(5+3)

= 10×8

=80

Hence, the correct option => 10(5+3)

Hope it helps!
