A political machine is a political group in which an authoritative boss or small group commands the support of a corps of supporters and businesses (usually campaign workers), who receive rewards for their efforts. ... The term may have a pejorative sense referring to corrupt political machines.
Answer:
y = (1/3)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.
The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.
The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.
m = 1/3
x = -3
y = 6
y = mx + b <----- Slope-intercept form
6 = (-3)(1/3) + b <----- Insert values
6 = -1 + b <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3
7 = b <----- Add 1 to both sides
Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.
y = (1/3)x + 7
X= 2 over 9 or in decimal form 0.2222....

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cube is
V=s^3, we are told the volume is 10u^3 and that it will be filled with cubes having a side of 1/2 so
n(1/2)^3=10, where n will be the number of these small cubes
n(1/8)=10 upon multiplying each side by 8
n=80
So it will take 80 cubes of side length 1/2 to have a volume equal to 10u^3
