The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, 3/5. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(3/5) = -5/3.
The point-slope form of the equation for a line of slope m through point (h, k) can be written ...
... y = m(x -h) +k
For your point and the slope found above, this becomes
... y = (-5/3)(x -15) -5
When x=0, this is
... y = (-5/3)(-15) -5 = 20
The y-intercept is 20.
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
(9x + 10)° = 136°
9x + 10 = 136
9x = 126
x = 14
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Jenny makes a profit of $2 for each bar of chocolate that she sells, if she sells a total of 500 chocolate bars, her profit would be:
Profit for 500 chocolate bars = profit for each chocolate bar * 500 bars
Profit for 500 chocolate bars = $2 per bar * 500 bars
Profit for 500 chocolate bars = $1000
Also she want to buy a laptop worth $998. This would be possible after selling 500 bars because $1000 > $998. After buying the laptop she would have $2 remaining ($1000 - $998)
