The equation of line AB is (y-3)=5(x-4) what is the slope of a line perpendicular to line AB

1 answer:

7 0

Solving for y, we can start by expanding to get y-3=5x-20. Next, we can add 3 to both sides (to separate y), resulting in y=5x-17. To find the slope in the equation y=mx+b, you simply find what you multiply x by, which is 5 in this case. To find a perpendicular slope, you start by making the slope (5 in this case) negative. Next, we find the reciprocal of the number. Since -5 can be written as -5/1, the reciprocal and therefore perpendicular slope is -1/5

One gram of protein contains 4 calories. One gram of fat contains 9 calories. A snack has 60 calories from p grams of protein an

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

1.5 grams of protein.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that represents the relationship between protein and fat is as follows :

4p + 9f = 60 ....(1)

We need to find the grams of protein are there if there are 6 grams of fat in the snack.

Put f = 6 in the above equation (1).

4p + 9(6)= 60

4p + 54 = 60

Subtract 54 to the both sides,

4p + 54-54 = 60-54

4p = 6

⇒ p = 1.5 grams

It means the snack contains 1.5 grams of protein.
