Number 1 is not equivalent to 2/3
16, because its 12 and you add one-third to 12 so that means its $16
To solve this, you’ll first need to solve for their slopes.
The slope for line Q is y2-y1/x2-x1 = -8-(-2)/-8-(-10) = -3
We know that the lines are perpendicular so the negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
The equation you get it y = 1/3x + b.
Now you will need to solve for b by substituting in the first ordered pair of line R.
2 = 1/3(1) + b.
Once you solve for b, you should get 5/3 and y = 1/3x + 5/3
Now, to find a, you will need to substitute in 10 from the second ordered pair into x in your new equation.
y = 1/3(10) + 5/3.
Your solution should be 5.
So your answer is: a = 5
Answer:
3.8
Step-by-step explanation:
if the apples are 0.30 cents each then you multiply .3 X 6 and you get 1.8 because 1 apple is .30 cents you want to know how much is 6.
Next you pay .40 cents each for 5 oranges so .4 X 5 which is 2. And once again one orange is .40 cents so you multiply that by 5 to see the price of 5 oranges
Now you add the 1.8 to 2 and get 3.8
Now for the equation you just need to plug in what you did so...
(0.3 X 6) + (0.40 X 5) = 3.8
Glad i could help :)

Answer: 15 hours (choice D)</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
(6 hours)/(8 trees) = (x hours)/(20 trees)
6/8 = x/20
6*20 = 8*x ... cross multiply
120 = 8x
8x = 120
x = 120/8
x = 15
It takes him 15 hours to plant 20 trees.
