Assuming equation 2 is y = (2/3)x-6, then the answer is A) Parallel.

Solve 2x-3y = 6 for y and you'd get y = (2/3)x-2. The slope here is 2/3 as it is for equation 2 as well. The slopes are the same but y intercepts are different, so the lines are parallel.

Juanita usually spends $3 more than twice her transportation costs on groceries. if x is the amount she spends on transportation
ruslelena [56]
<h3>Answer: It's a linear equation.</h3><h3>It's not a proportional relationship.</h3><h3>Juanita spend $63 on groceries if she spent $30 on transportation.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation: Given equation y=2x+3.

Where x is the amount she spends on transportation, and y is the amount she spends on groceries.

<em>We can see that given equation is in slope-intercept form y=mx+b.</em>

So, it's a linear equation and y=2x+3 is the relationship between x and y linear.

<em>Also, a linear linear equation represents a proportion relationship if y-intercept is 0.</em>

But for the given equation y=2x+3, y-intercept is 3.

Therefore, it's not a proportional relationship.

Now, in order to find how much would Juanita spend on groceries if she spent $30 on transportation, we need to plug x= 30 in given equation.

Therefore,

y = 2(30) +3 = 60+3 = 63.

<h3>So, Juanita spend $63 on groceries if she spent $30 on transportation.</h3>

Which equation represents the line that is perpendicular to and passes through (-40,20)?
emmasim [6.3K]

The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is: y = -5/4x - 30.

<h3>What is the Equation of Perpendicular Lines?</h3>

The slope values of two perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of each other.

Given that the line is perpendicular to y = 4/5x+23, the slope of y = 4/5x+23 is 4/5. Negative reciprocal of 4/5 is -5/4.

Therefore, the line that is perpendicular to it would have a slope (m) of -5/4.

Plug in m = -5/4 and (x, y) = (-40, 20) into y = mx + b to find b:

20 = -5/4(-40) + b

20 = 50 + b

20 - 50 = b

b = -30

Substitute m = -5/4 and b = -30 into y = mx + b:

y = -5/4x - 30

The equation of the perpendicular line is: y = -5/4x - 30.

The number of students who attended Albany Medical College last year was 1000. This year, attendance has increased to 1350 stude
NeTakaya
First you have to subtract 1350-1000 to get 350. Then you have to make 350/1000 into a percent. First you have to turn it into a decimal. In the fraction 350/1000 can be reduced to 35/100. In decimal form it would be 0.35. In pecentage form it would be 35%. The percentage difference of the student population would be 35%.

Find the value of the variable if P is between J &amp; K. A) JP = 8z - 17 B) PK = 5z + 37 C) JK = 17z - 4
Daniel [21]
<span>We cannot deduce about the exact location of P between J and K. But we can conclude: segment JP + segment PK = line JK.
</span><span>JP + PK = JK.
</span><span>Substitute first each.
(8z - 17) + (5z + 37) = 17z - 4
Combine like terms.
13z + 20 = 17z - 4
Isolate the variable z.
4z = 24
z = 6
The value of the variable z is then 6 units.</span>

In the DBE 122 class, there are 350 possible points. These points come from 5 homework sets that are worth 10 points each and 3
Sliva [168]

Answer:

i) it is not possible for the student to receive an A in the class

ii) 119 points

iii) 84points

Step-by-step explanation:

Total exam scores = 350points

homework scores of 7, 8, 7, 5, and 8

Let the third exam score =y

Exam scores = 81, 80, x

i) To know if the student would get an A in class, we would find the third exam score

(Scores received by a student)/ (total scores) = least of the grade percentage to get an A

(7 + 8 + 7 +5 + 8 + 81 + 80 + x)/350 = 0.9

(196+x)/350 = 0.9

196+x = 350 × 0.9

196+x = 315

x = 315-196

x = 119

119 > 100

Since the maximum grade for each of the exam score is 100points, it is not possible for the student to receive an A in the class.

ii) Since the least of the grade percentage that would guarantee an A is 0.9, the minimum score on the third exam that will give an A = 119points

iii) (Scores received by a student)/ (total scores) = least of the grade percentage to get a B

(7 + 8 + 7 +5 + 8 + 81 + 80 + x)/350 = 0.8

(196+x)/350 = 0.8

196+x = 350 × 0.8 = 280

x = 280-196

x = 84

The minimum score on the third exam that will give a B = 84points
