Based from background knowledge, I believe that the correct answer among all of the given choices would be B.) 38/2. This would give you 19. If I am mistaken, please correct me. But I am definitely positive that this is the right answer.
I hope this is the answer you were looking for and that it helps!! :)
She would make $98.50 in 10 hours.
Explanation :
255/20 = 12.75
12.75 - 2.90 = 9.85
9.85 x 10 = 98.50
1) Parallel lines have equal slopes.
We need to find the slope of the given line by solving for y.
5x - 15y = 30
-15y = -5x + 30
y = (1/3)x - 2
The slope of the given line is 1/3, so the slope of the parallel line is also 1/3.
2) Line 1 has slope 2/3.
Line 2 has slope 2/3.
3) Line 1 is a vertical line through x = 2. Line 2 is a horizontal line through y = -5. The lines are perpendicular.
4) The given line can is solved for y, so we can see its slope is -5/2. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals. The perpendicular line has slope 2/5. We have point (5, 0) which is (x1, y1) in the slope-point formula.
y - 0 = (2/5)(x - 5)
y = 2/5 x - 2
5) The given equation has slope -3. To find the negative reciprocal, write the slope as a fraction, flip it, and change the sign.
Slope of perpendicular line is 1/3.
