Which 1 is the equation 3x+9y=7 that passes through (6,4)

1 answer:

6 0

Perpendicular lines have an negated inverse slope compared to a given line. so we need to find slope of line:
3x + 9y = 7
y = -1 / 3 x + 7

so the opposite of -1/3 is 1/3. flip the fraction to get the inverse and it is 3/1 or 3. 3 is then the slope of perpendicular line. now we see which one will work with it. there are 2 possible
3x+ 4 = y
3x - 14 = y

plug in the point on line and see if it works
3 (6) + 4 = 4 nope

3 (6) -14 = 4 yes
so 3x - 14 = y

inna [77]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y+4=−12(x−2)

Step 1: Add -4 to both sides.

y+4+−4=−12x+24+−4

y=−12x+20

A Pharmacist whishes to mix a solution that is 6% Minoxidil. She has on hand 100 ml of 4% solution and wishes to add some 8% sol

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

She would need 100 ml of the 8% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

You can always answer these questions using a proportion. The numerator will represent the amount of Minoxidil, and the denominator will represent the total amount of solution

She already ha 100 ml of a 4% solution. That means that she has 4 ml of Minoxidil already

$\frac{4 + 0.08(S)}{100 + S} =\frac{6}{100}$
