Answer:
A) 3y = x + 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a perpendicular line can be found by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. The constant will be chosen to match the given point.
Swapping coefficients, we get ...
-3y = x + c
Negating the y-coefficient gives ...
3y = x + c
Filling in the given point, we have ...
3(5) = -1 + c
16 = c
The equation of the perpendicular line can be written as ...
3y = x + 16 . . . . matches choice A
_____
Note that choice A is the only equation that gives a line with positive slope. The given equation has negative slope, so its perpendicular must have positive slope.
The answer is C
1/2(5x + 12)
because the perimeter is equal 20x + 6
Hello! So Angie reads 60 pages in 2 hours, without the TV on. 60/2 is 30. She reads 30 pages an hour without the TV on, and 24 pages with the TV off. To find the percent of her reading rate with the TV on instead of off, we can just divide both of the reading rates. 24/30 is 0.8. Multiply that by 100 and you get 80% in percent form. There. Angie's reading rate with the TV on is 80% of her reading rate with the TV off. The answer is B: 80%.
