What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to the line

Mathematics

Answer:

y = x - 1 (third answer choice)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given we see immediately that the slope of this line is -1.  The slope of a line perpendicular to this one is +1, which is the negative reciprocal of -1.  The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b.  To find b, the y-intercept, we make the following substitutions:  m = -1, y = -2, x = -2:

-2 = +1(-2) + b, or +1 = 2 + b, or b = -1

and so the desired equation is y = x - 1 (third answer choice)

Claudia bought 2 filing cabinets and 4 cupboards. A filing cabinet costs 3 times as much as a cupboard. She paid 800 altogether.
Lyrx [107]

Step-by-step explanation:

If f = price of filing cabinet and c = price of cupboard we can make up the equation

2f + 4c = 800

we also know that f = 3c, so can substitute that into equation

2 (3c) + 4c = 800

6c + 4c = 800

10c = 800

c = 80

f = 240

First you put your 2,000 lb.  Then you subtract 170lb from it.
2,000 - 170 = 1,830.  So you have 1,830 available for freight.
1,830 divided by 69 = 26.5.

Since you can't cut a box in half, and you don't want to overload your lift, your answer is 26 boxes.

Help fast!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's due at 12:00 and it's 11:23 please help me i need to get to 90

You can use two method

First method: form a triangle from x = 4 to x = 7. See vertically and horizontally (count the squares). It would be 5 and 3. Therefore 5/3 would be the slope.

Second method: use the slope formula

Determine 2 points on the graph

(4,0) and (7,5)

Formula: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(5-0)/(7-4) = 5/3

The slope is 5/3
