Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + y = 4

y = -3x + 4

the perpendicular slope is the reciprocal of the original slope.

so the slope would be 1/3

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 3x + y = 4 for y to find the slope of this line:  y = -3x + 4.  That slope is -3.

Any line perpendicular to 3x + y = 4 will have a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -3:  +1/3.

Two cars leave from a town at the same time traveling in opposite directions. One travels 5 mph faster than the other. In 3 hour
Doss [256]

Let the slower cars speed equal X.

The faster cars speed would be X+5 ( 5 mph faster).


They traveled for 3 hours

Multiply the time of travel by speed to equal the number of miles traveled.

So you have:

3X + 3(X+5) = 267 miles

Simplify the left side:

3X + 3X+15 = 267

Combine like terms:

6x + 15 = 267

Subtract 15 from each side"

6x = 252

Divide each side by 6:

x = 252 / 6

X = 42


The slower car was traveling at 42 mph and the faster car was traveling at 47 mph.

Answer:
False
