To solve this, you’ll first need to solve for their slopes.
The slope for line Q is y2-y1/x2-x1 = -8-(-2)/-8-(-10) = -3
We know that the lines are perpendicular so the negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
The equation you get it y = 1/3x + b.
Now you will need to solve for b by substituting in the first ordered pair of line R.
2 = 1/3(1) + b.
Once you solve for b, you should get 5/3 and y = 1/3x + 5/3
Now, to find a, you will need to substitute in 10 from the second ordered pair into x in your new equation.
y = 1/3(10) + 5/3.
Your solution should be 5.
So your answer is: a = 5
Answer:
Identity property of addition: The sum of 0 and any number is that number. For example, 0 + 4 = 4 0 + 4 = 4 0+4=40, plus, 4, equals, 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the same equation to figure out with only substituting the amount he was paid per photo.
Site A y = $0.85x = $0.85(5) = $4.25
Site B y = $0.40x = $0.40(5) = $2.00
We can see that Jim was paid $2.25 more at site A than Site B.
Answer:
3x^2 + 16x + 42
3x^2 + 4x + 2
3x^2 – 16x + 42
3x^2 – 4x + 2
