You can set it up like:

400/2.5 = 600/x; now cross multiply
400x = 2.5(600)
400x = 1,500; now divide both sides by 400 to isolate the x, and you get x = 3.75 hours

20) What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the line of the given equation?
kompoz [17]
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite signs and reciprocals.
Example: If one line has a slope of 5/3, then the perpendicular slope is -3/5.

In your case, your first line has a slope of -1/5. The perpendicular slope will be positive and will be 5/1.

The slope of a line perpendicular to the given one is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving for this, you can derive the equations

x=5y and x+6= 3(y+6)

x= mother and y= Daughter

Solve the equations by substituting the first equation into the places of x in the second equation to get the value of x. Next, pug in the value of x and solve for y.

Look at the relation below.
Mariana [72]

Answer:

If we remove one ordered pair (1, -2) then the set of points would represent a function.

Hence, option C i.e. (1, -2) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a function is a relation where each input or x-value of the X set has a unique y-value or output of the Y set.

In other words, we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Given the relation

{(-2,4), (4,-2), (1,1), (1,-2), (0,1), (6,4)}

If we closely check, we can observe that the input x = 1 is repeated twice.

In other words, there are two ordered pairs (1, 1) and (1, -2) with the same input x = 1. So, x = 1 is duplicated here.

We know that we can not have duplicated inputs as there should be only 1 output for each input.

Therefore, if we remove one ordered pair (1, -2) then the set of points would represent a function.

Hence, option C i.e. (1, -2) is correct.
