An hourglass is turned over with the top part filled with
sand. after 3 minutes, there are 855 ml of sand in the top half. after 10
minutes, there are 750 ml of sand in the top half. This can be represents a two
points ( 3, 855) and (10, 750) . using this to solve the slope m =
(750-855)/(10-3) = -15. And using one point the equation is y = -15x + 900.
we know that
if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to minus one
so

Step 1
<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>
we have

Solve for y
Divide by
both sides


the slope of the given line is 
Step 2
<u>Find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the given line</u>
we have



substitute the value of m1

therefore
<u>the answer is</u>
the slope is 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply first,
so 2√6 x √8 = 2√48 (because when radicals are multiplied we add them)
so
2√48 can be simplified to 8√3 and 2√12 can be simplified to 4√3
8√3+4√3=12√3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
He forgot the scale. It is 2 inches longer on the graph, but each inch represents 1/4 mile. So it is 2 quarter miles, or 1/2 mile
Answer:
6 laps
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the scenario, calculation of the data are as follows:
Each lap = 0.25 miles
Regan's plan to run= 1.5 miles
So, we can calculate number of laps by using following formula,
Number of laps = Total miles to run ÷ each lap miles
By putting the value, we get
Number of laps = 1.5 miles ÷ 0.25 miles
= 6 laps
So, she should run 6 laps.
