The coordinates of A, B, and C in the diagram are A (p, 4), B (6, 1 ), and C (9, q). Which equation correctly relates p and q? ↔

↔ ↔ ↔ Hint: Since AB is perpendicular to BC, the slope of AB × the slope o BC = -1. A. -q − p = 7 B. q − p = 7 C. p − q = 7 D. p + q = 7

Answer:

  D.  p + q = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of AB is ...

  mAB = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) = (1 -4)/(6 -p) = -3/(6 -p)

The slope of BC is ...

  mBC = (q -1)/(9 -6) = (q -1)/3

We want the product of these slopes to be -1:

  mAB·mBC = -1 = (-3/(6 -p))·((q -1)/3)

  -(q-1)/(6 -p) = -1 . . . . cancel factors of 3

  q -1 = 6 -p . . . . . multiply by -(6 -p)

  q + p = 7 . . . . . matches choice D

A store had 913 sodas, both diet and regular. The ratio of diet sodas to regular sodas was 8:3. How many diet sodas were there?
Elodia [21]

Answer:

<h2>There are 664 diet soda</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

total soda= 913

we are told that the ratio of diet sodas to regular sodas is 8:3

this means that for every 8 diet soda there is 3 regular soda

the total ratio is 8+3=11

Step two:

we are going to use part to all principle

let the diet soda be x

8/11=x/913

cross multiply

11x=913*8

divide both sides by 11

x=913*8/11

x=7304/11

x=664

There are 664 diet soda

You earn 60 dollars for mowing 5 lawns how much do you earn for mowing 15 lawns
Nookie1986 [14]

well 60/5=12

so you get $12 per yard

12*15=180

or you could notice that 5 goes into 15 3 times and then multiply 60*3 any way the answer is 180
