I cannot see the choices, so, I will explain this using two different concepts and you can apply the explanation on the given choices

1- Explanation using angle formed:
Imagine that Elm street and Birch street are two lines.
Now, for to lines to be perpendicular, these two lines must intersect forming a 90 degree angle.

Now, noticing the intersection between the two streets, we will find that the angle, formed is not 90 degrees

2- Explanation using slopes:
For two lines to be perpendicular, the slopes of the two lines must be negative reciprocals of each other.
This means that, if the slope of one line is m, then the slope of the other must be -1/m for the two lines to be perpendicular.

Now, Birch street is a horizontal line, this means that its slope is zero.
For Elm street to be perpendicular on it, the slope of Elm street must be equal to -1/0. This means that the slope of Elm street has to be undefined which means that Elm street must be a perfectly vertical line.

However, from the graph, we can note that Elm street is an inclined line which means that its slope is not undefined.
This means that the two streets are not perpendicular to each other.

Hope this helps :)

The equation w = 6m+4, relates how a dog's weight varies with age, where m represents its age in months, and the w represents it
natima [27]

Answer:

<h3>9 months</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the relationship of the dogs weight ang its age modeled by the equation;

w = 6m+4

m represents its age in months, and;

w represents its weight in pounds

Given

w = 58pounds

Required

number of months m before the dog weigh 58pounds;

Substitute w = 58 into the function and get m as shown;

w = 6m + 4

58 = 6m + 4

subtract 4 from both sides

58-4 = 6m+4-4

54 = 6m

divide both sides by 6

54/6 = 6m/6

9 = m

m = 9

Hence it will take 9months before the dog will weigh 58 pounds

The manufacturer of widgets spends $5 to make each widget and sells them for $8. The manufacturer also has fixed costs each mont
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

400

Step-by-step explanation:

The manufacturer spends $5 to make each widget and sells them for $8.  This means that each widget gives him a profit of $3.

8 - 5 = 3

You need to figure out how many widgets it will take for the manufacturer to make up for the costs each month ($1200).

3x = 1200

(3x)/3 = 1200/3

x = 400

The manufacturer needs to sell 400 widgets.
