Ben is 8 years old right now.

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

First write the equation:

x + 16 = 3x

Then subtract x from both sides:

x - x + 16 = 3x - x

16 = 2x

Now all you have to do is divide both sides by two!

16/2 = 2x/2

8 = x

What is the equation of a line perpendicular to the line y=(4/9)x-2 that passes through the point (4,3)?
Hoochie [10]
<span>y=(4/9)x-2
This is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b), where m is the slope. 
A perpendicular line will have the opposite reciprocal of the slope.
So if the slope here is 4/9, then the perpendicular line's slope will be -9/4.

Now that you have the slope (-9/4) and a point (4, 3), you can use the point-slope formula to find the equation.
y - y</span>₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 3 = (-9/4)(x - 4)
y - 3 = (-9/4)x + 9
y = (-9/4)x + 12

So the answer will be:
C. <span>y= -(9/4)x+12</span>

On a coordinate plane, triangle J K L has points (negative 2, 1), (0, 3), and (2, negative 1). Reflect the figure over the line
svetlana [45]

Answer:

J'(2, 1)

K'(0, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, coordinates of the points J, K and L are (-2, 1), (0, 3) and (2, -1) respectively.

If we reflect these points over the line x = 0 or y-axis, rule to be followed is

(x, y) → (-x, y)

Only sign of x coordinates get changed while y coordinates remain the same.

Following this rule coordinates of the images of J' and K' will be

J(-2, 1) → J'(2, 1)

and K(0, 3) → K'(0, 3)
