Since the board is in inches, she can lay the board on the side of the rug. after she finds how many inches the rug is, Lyza can convert the inches into feet by dividing the amount of inches by 12.

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to y = -1/2x – 3 that crosses the point

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 3

Slope of perpendicular line is "2"

( - 3 , - 2 )

y + 2 = 2( x + 3 )

<em>y = 2x + 4</em>

Suppose f(x) = 6x^2 + 2x − 7 and g(x) = 4x − 3. Find each of the following functions.

FinnZ [79.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

(f+g)(x) ➡ f(x) + g(x) ➡ 6x^2 + 2x -7 + 4x - 3 =6x^2 + 6x - 10

(f-g)(x) ➡ f(x) - g(x) ➡ 6x^2 + 2x - 7 -4x + 3 = 6x^2 -2x -4

90miles/hour
divide by 360 to convert to miles per second
multiply by 5280 to get to feet per second
multiply by number of seconds to get length (in feet) of each object

1 1/4mi = ft, can someone explain this to me

skelet666 [1.2K]

First off, we'll convert the mixed fraction to "improper" and check about, keeping in mind that, there are 5280 feet in 1mile.

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{4}~mi}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 4+1}{4}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{4}~mi}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
feet&miles\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
5280&1\\
f&\frac{5}{4}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{1}{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }\implies \cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{\frac{1}{1}}{\quad \frac{5}{4}\quad }
\\\\\\
\cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{1}{1}\cdot \cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{5280}{f}=\cfrac{4}{5}\implies \cfrac{5280\cdot 5}{4}=f\implies 6600=f$
