If the line that goes through (9, 6) is perpendicular to y = -1/3x + 7, then their slopes will be opposite reciprocals.  The slope of the line given is -1/3.  The opposite reciprocal of -1/3 is +3.  If we have our new line passing through point with x coordinate 9 and y coordinate 6, we will use that x and y and the slope of 3 to solve the slope-intercept equation for b.  Like this:  9 = 3(6) + b.  9 = 18 + b and b = -9.  That means that the new equation, the one that is perpendicular to the given line, is y = 3x - 9.

Sara is 5 ft 10inches y’all ? To the nearest centimeter how tall is sara? If 1 in equals 2.54 centimeters
Dahasolnce [82]

1 foot = 12 inches.

5 ft x 12 inches per foot = 60 inches.

60 inches + 10 inches = 70 inches.

Sara was 70 inches tall.

Now convert to centimeters:

70 inches x 2.54 centimeters per inch = 177.8 cm's.

Round to nearest centimeter = 178 cm's.

3 similar shirts and 4 similar jackets cost $360. 1 such shirt and 3 such jackets cost $220. Find the costof each shirt.
Lyrx [107]
3s + 4j = 360
1s + 3j = 220

This one we can solve using substitution, in that
s + 3j = 220 implies s = 220 - 3j (subtract 3j from each side).

Now substitute into the first equation:

3(220 - 3j) + 4j = 360.  Solve for jackets.
660 - 9j + 4j = 360  [Distributive property]
660 - 5j = 360 [Add -9j + 4j]
Subtract 360 from each side, and add 5j to each side.
660 - 360 - 5j + 5j = 360 - 360 + 5j
300 = 5j
Divide each side by 5.
$60 = price of a jacket.

Three of these plus a shirt runs $220.
3(60) = 180
180 + s = 220
180 - 180 + s = 220 - 180 [Subtract 180 from each side]
s =   40

Now we double check.
3(40) + 4 (60) = 120 + 240 = 360.  This satisfies the first equation.
We could check the second one too, but I'm satisfied.
