Answer: $4.50


Step-by-step explanation: If it is 50% off then you take the price of $2.25 and double it. So 2 times $2.25 which is $4.50.

-2=3(y-2) how do you solve this problem for y​
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

y= 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−2=3(y−2)

−2=(3)(y)+(3)(−2)(Distribute)

−2=3y+−6

−2=3y−6

Step 2: Flip the equation.

3y−6=−2

Step 3: Add 6 to both sides.

3y−6+6=−2+6

3y=4

Step 4: Divide both sides by 3.

3y /3 = 4 /3

y= 4/3

Answer:

y= 4/3

A straight line, L, is perpendicular to the straight line y=2x-1 and passes through the point (8,1). Find an equation of L
luda_lava [24]
Let's call that other line with the eqn. y=2x-1 line M.
This line is in slope-intercept form, which means that it is written in the form y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
This means that the slope of line M is 2.

Perpendicular lines have slopes which are opposite reciprocals.
(that is to say, if you flipped the fraction and changed the sign)

Of course, 2 isn't a fraction, but it's implied as 2/1.
The opposite reciprocal would then be -1/2.
Let's plug this into our slope-intercept form equation for line L.

y = mx + b
y = -1/2x + b

Of course, we still need to find that y-intercept. (y when x = 0)
To do this, we need to interpret the slope.
Slopes are rise over run, so m = -1/2 means a change of -1 in y = 2 in x.
Let's take a point we know is in our line, (8, 1).
To find that y-intercept, we want x to be 0.
To do this, we'd have to subtract 8 from x.
And according to our slope, this means adding 4 to y.
Our y-intercept is at (0, 5), with the value b that we use being just 5.

\boxed{y=-\frac{1}2x+5}

In the image, the distance from the swings to the slide is 35
Nikitich [7]
The Pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2 where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse(longest side). you haven’t put a picture so I don’t know where 35 is a leg or the hypotenuse, but all you have to do is square the 2 shorter sides and add them and set it equal to the square of the longer side. You can do it!
