Answer:

9.3

Step-by-step explanation:

if both travel at same speed they will take equal distance and time to reach the middle and collide.

hence, 27/2 =13.5km

speed=distance/time

time = distance/speed

time= 13.5/87 = 0.15517mm hr

0.15517×60 = 9.31minutes

8x – 65 = - x2<br> [pease help me
Leya [2.2K]

Answer: x=5 or x=−13

Step-by-step explanation:

8x−65=−x2

8x−65−(−x2)=−x2−(−x2)

x2+8x−65=0

(x−5)(x+13)=0

x−5=0 or x+13=0

x=5 or x=−13

For the graph x = 12 find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to it and the slope of a line parallel to it. Explain your a
blagie [28]
Check the picture below.

that's the line of x = 12, just a straight vertical line, notice the green line, that's parallel to it, and the red line, that's perpendicular to it.

let's pick two points for each to get their slopes, hmm say for the green one (5,2) and (5,4)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad &#10;(\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{4})&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope =  m\implies &#10;\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{4-2}{5-5}\implies \stackrel{und efined}{\cfrac{2}{0}}

and for the red one hmmm (3,2) and (7,2)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})\qquad &#10;(\stackrel{x_2}{7}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2})&#10;\\\\\\&#10;% slope  = m&#10;slope =  m\implies &#10;\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{2-2}{7-3}\implies \cfrac{0}{4}\implies 0

7. During the Middle Ages, people often used grains, scruples, and drahms to measure the weights of different medicines. If 120
Serjik [45]

Answer:

5 drahms.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

120 grains = 6 scruples

6 scruples = 2 drahms

300 grains (in drahms) =..?

From the above data,

120 grains = 6 scruples

6 scruples = 2 drahms

Therefore,

120 grains = 2 drahms

Thus, we can obtain 300 grains in drahms as follow:

120 grains = 2 drahms

Therefore,

300 grains = 300 grains × 2 drahms /120 grains

300 grains = (300 × 2)/120 drahms

300 grains = 5 drahms

Therefore, 300 grains is equivalent to 5 drahms.
