Answer:

x= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Slope formula is</u>

m = Δy/Δx

When Δx = 0 the denominator of the fraction is zero, hence it is undefined

So this is a vertical line

A vertical line passing through the point (9, -5) is x= 9

So the answer is x= 9

A boat takes 4 hours to go 20 miles upstream. It can go 32 miles downstream in the same time. Find the rate of the current and t

KonstantinChe [14]

Let the boat speed in still water be b.
Let the current speed be c.
The speed going upstream is 20/4 = 5 mph.
The speed going downstream is 32/4 = 8 mph.
b - c = 5 ........(1)
b + c = 8 .......(2)
Adding equations (1) and (2) we get:
2b = 13
b = 13/2 = 6.5
Plugging in the value for b into equation (1) we find c = 1.5.
The boat speed in still water is 6.5 mph and the current speed is 1.5 mph.

What is 1/3 of 21,<br> 2/5 of 40<br> 4/7 of 280

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

$\frac{1}{3} \times 21=\frac{21}{3}=\frac{7 \times 3}{3}=7 \\ \\
\frac{2}{5} \times 40=\frac{2 \times 40}{5}=\frac{2 \times 8 \times 5}{5}=2 \times 8=16 \\ \\
\frac{4}{7} \times 280=\frac{4 \times 280}{7}=\frac{4 \times 40 \times 7}{7}=4 \times 40=160$
