Answer:

Charlie's weight is represented by the expression x+9. Since the equation needs their weights totaled, you must add x and x+9 and set it equal to 99 to get *2x + 9 = 99*

If the weight of the little brother is x, then the weight of  Charles is x + 9

The equation that can be used to determine what each one weighs is:

x + (x + 9) = 99.

Let us now solve it.

x + x +9 = 99

2x + 9 = 99

2x = 99 - 9

2x = 90

x = 90/2

x = 45

Little brother's  weight is 45 kg.

Charles'   weight  will be 45 + 9 =  54 kg

Adding these two weights will give 99kg

Two lines are perpendicular. The slope of one line is -2, What is the slope of the other line?
faltersainse [42]
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign.
slope = -2, or -2/1....so flip the slope...-1/2...and change the sign...1/2.
so the perpendicular slope would be 1/2.

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through (2,3)(2,3)left parenthesis, 2, comma, 3, right parenthesis and (7,4)(7,4)l
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{5}x +\frac{13}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x_1,y_1) = (2,3)

(x_2,y_2) = (7,4)

Required

Complete the equation y - 4.....

First, we need to determine the slope as follows:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{4 - 3}{7 - 2}

m = \frac{1}{5}

The equation is then calculated as thus:

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

This gives:

y - 4 = \frac{1}{5}(x -7)

Open bracket

y - 4 = \frac{1}{5}x -\frac{7}{5}

Add 4 to both sides

y - 4 +4= \frac{1}{5}x -\frac{7}{5} + 4

y = \frac{1}{5}x -\frac{7}{5} + 4

y = \frac{1}{5}x +\frac{-7+20}{5}

y = \frac{1}{5}x +\frac{13}{5}

Please someone HELP QUICK<br> ILL GIVE BRAINLIEST TO CORRECT ANSWER<br><br> HURRYYYYYY
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Okay. So t is in the parenthesis of the equations and represents the number of years after 1950. In this case, the first, second, third, and the seventh tile won't work, because those numbers are too big to be applicable as years. The number of vinyls sold each year would be put behind the equal sign. If you solve it correctly, here are your answers starting from the top:

1. f(8) = 68,594
2. f(11) = 91,299
3. f(2) = 38,720
4. f(17) = 161,743
