We know, perpendicular lines have opposite & reciprocal slope.
So, reciprocal of -1/7 is -7
Now, opposite of -7 is 7

In short, Your Answer would be Option A) 7

Hope this helps!

Lizzie has 30 coins that total $4.80. All of her coins are dimes, D, and quarters, Q. Algebraically determine how many of each t

Gnom [1K]

Lizzie has 18 dimes and 12 quarters

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "d" be the number of dimes

Let "q" be the number of quarters

We know that,

value of 1 dime = $ 0.10

value of 1 quarter = $ 0.25

Given that LIzzie has 30 coins

number of dimes + number of quarters = 30

d + q = 30 ---- eqn 1

Also given that the coins total $ 4.80

number of dimes x value of 1 dime + number of quarters x value of 1 quarter = 4.80

$d \times 0.10 + q \times 0.25 = 4.80$

0.1d + 0.25q = 4.8 ------ eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

From eqn 1,

d = 30 - q ---- eqn 3

Substitute eqn 3 in eqn 2

0.1(30 - q) + 0.25q = 4.8

3 - 0.1q + 0.25q = 4.8

0.15q = 1.8

From eqn 3,

d = 30 - 12

Thus she has 18 dimes and 12 quarters

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

convert mixed fractions to improper fractions

rule=a b/c=(ac+b)/c

(1 1/3)/(1 3/4)

(4/3)/(7/4)

rule for dividing fractions=(a/b)/(c/d)=(a/b)(d/c)

(4/3)(4/7) then you can multiply the numerators and denominators

Answer: see attachments

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing side (x² + y² = h²)

Use the following formulas to find the trig functions:

$sin\theta=\dfrac{y}{h}\qquad \qquad csc\theta=\dfrac{h}{y}\\\\\\cos\theta=\dfrac{x}{h}\qquad \qquad sec\theta=\dfrac{h}{x}\\\\\\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{x}\qquad \qquad cot\theta=\dfrac{x}{y}$
