3x - 2y = 7
-2y = -3x + 7
y = 3/2x - 7/2....slope of this line is 3/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we need is -2/3 (see how I flipped the slope and changed the sign)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
(-3,-2).....x = -3 and y = -2
now we sub and find b, the y int
-2 = -2/3(-3) = b
-2 = 2 + b
-2 - 2 = b
-4 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2/3x - 4 <==
15 x 25 = 375
15 x 50 = 750
375 + 750 = 1,125

Answer:
180 eggs is the correct amount.
Answer:
See below ~
Step-by-step explanation:
Sides of a rhombus are equal.
⇒ QT = TS
⇒ x² - 4x - 10 = 6x + 14
⇒ x² - 10x - 24 = 0
⇒ x² + 2x - 12x - 24 = 0
⇒ x (x + 2) - 12 (x + 2) = 0
⇒ (x + 2)(x - 12) = 0
⇒ x = -2 or x = 12
Substitute both values and see which gives a positive value for QT :
<u>When x = -2</u> :
- QT = (-2)² - 4(-2) - 10
- QT = 4 + 8 - 10
- QT = 2
<u>When x = 12</u> :
- QT = (12)² - 4(12) - 10
- QT = 144 - 48 - 10
- QT = 86
The 2 possible answers are :
- x = -2, QT = 2
- x = 12, QT = 86
