What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (6, 1) and is perpendicular to the line y = –3x + 2

1 answer:

4 0

The slope of the given equation of the line, y = -3x + 2 is equal to -3. The slope of the line perpendicular to it is 1/3. The equation of the line may be expressed in slope-point form which can generally be expressed as,
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Substituting the values,
y - 6 = (1/3)(x - 1)
Simplifying,
y = x/3 +17/3
The answer is not among the choices.

The flow rate for one pipe is 2 times that of another pipe. A swimming pool can be filled in 10 hours using both pipes. Find the

sweet [91]

Answer:

Pipe 1 twice as fast as pipe 2.

(Pipe 1 time * Pipe 2 time) / (Pipe 1 time + Pipe 2 time) = combined time

(x * (x/2)) / (x + x/2) = 10

(x^2/2) / 1.5 x = 10

x^2 / 2 = 15 x

x^2 /2 - 15 x = 0

x = 30 (slow pipe)

x/2 = 15 (fast pipe)

So it would take 30 hours using the slow pipe only.

How to write a number increased by 11 is eaqual to twice the number decreased by 12

Nataliya [291]

Answer: The number is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the [number]

Rephrase the expression

a number increased by 11 is equal to twice the number decrease by 12

x+11=2x-12

Add 12 on both sides

x+11+12=2x-12+12

x+23=2x

Subtract x on both sides

x+23-x=2x-x

x=23

Hope this helps!! :)
