What is the equation of the line that passes through (-9,12) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=1/3x 6?

Y = 1/3x ? 6....slope here is 1/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -3 (see how I flipped 1/3 and changed the sign)

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3
(-9,12)...x = -9 and y = 12
now we sub and find b, the y int
12 = -3(-9) + b
12 = 27 + b
12 - 27 = b
-15 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -3x - 15

Suppose Sally has $28.00 in her bank account and starts saving $18.25 every week. Her friend Suzy has $161.00 in her bank accoun
Elza [17]

a.

Sally has $28.00 in her bank account and starts saving $18.25 every week.

Let x represent the number of weeks from when he have $28.00 in her account.

and y represent the amount in her account at week x;

We can write the function of the case as;

y=mx+b

where m is the amount she saves every week, and b the initial amount in her account.

\begin{gathered} m=\text{ \$18.25} \\ b=\text{ \$28.00} \end{gathered}

So, the function will be;

y=18.25x+28

b.

Her friend Suzy has $161.00 in her bank account and is withdrawing $15 every week.​

Using the same rule as in a above;

\begin{gathered} m=-15\text{ (withdrawing is negative)} \\ b=161 \end{gathered}

The function will be;

y=-15x+161

c.

The graph of the two functions is shown below;

d.

The point where the two lines intersect is shown in the graph above.

The point is at;

(4,101)

Which is at week 4 and balance $101.

e.

The point at which they intersect is the point where they both have the same values.

It is the week when both Sally and Suzy have the same amount in there account.

So, at the fourth week (week 4) Sally and Suzy both have $101 in their account

Given angle BEJ~RUW, what is RU?
harina [27]

RU is 34. To find the answer you can use a proportion. In this problem the proportion would be 60/51 = 40/x. You can then cross multiply giving you 51*40=60x. You can then solve for x which is your answer.

Marvin is comparing two different music websites. Website A charges $10 per month for a subscription and $0.25 per song. Website
Alecsey [184]
Website A:
c = 10 + 0.25 s 
where c is the cost and s is the number of songs.
Website B:
c = 0.75 s
The equation ( answer ):
10 + 0.25 s = 0.75 s
We can solve this equation:
10 = 0.5 s
s = 10 : 0.5
s = 20 ( Marvin would have to buy 20 songs to to make the costs equal )
