To solve 4-12 on a number line you would need to start on 4 then move 12 places to the left since 12 is negative. Twelve would be negative because you cant take away 12 from 4 . When you move 12 places to the left you would get -8

Answer:

representing the number 4 - 12 in the number line

A number line is a line in which all the positive and negative numbers are marked on it.

the number line is represented in the diagram attached below.

when 4 is subtracted by 12 then we move left on the line graph and the point -8 will be represented in the graph.

for what value of k, the line joining 3x-ky+7=0 is perpendicular to the line joining (4 ,3) and ( 5, -3).
Schach [20]

Answer:

  • k = 18

=========

<h2>Given</h2>

<h3>Line 1</h3>
  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0

<h3>Line 2</h3>
  • Passing through the points (4, 3) and (5, - 3)

<h2>To find</h2>

  • The value of k, if the lines are perpendicular

<h2>Solution</h2>

We know the perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, that is the product of their slopes is - 1.

Find the slope of line 1 by converting the equation into slope-intercept from standard form:

<u><em>Info:</em></u>

  • <em>standard form is ⇒ ax + by + c = 0, </em>
  • <em>slope - intercept form is ⇒ y = mx + b, where m is the slope</em>

  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0
  • ky = 3x + 7
  • y = (3/k)x + 7/k

Its slope is 3/k.

Find the slope of line 2, using the slope formula:

  • m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-3 - 3)/(5 - 4) = - 6/1 = - 6

We have both the slopes now. Find their product:

  • (3/k)*(- 6) = - 1
  • - 18/k = - 1
  • k = 18

So when k is 18, the lines are perpendicular.

A business consultant earns a flat fee for his work as well as an hourly fee. He charges his clients at a rate of $75 per hour.
gregori [183]
The answer would be D. y=75x+300 because if you multiply 75 and 20 you would get 1500 and subtract 1800 for how much was paid and 1500 for the result of multiplying 75 and 20
Answer is D. y=75x+300

You are ordering DVD's from a web site. They charge $14 for each DVD. For any order you must pay an additional $6 for shipping a
valkas [14]

Answer:

y = 16x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

They charge $14 for each DVD, which mean the slope of the function is 14

You must pay an additional $6 for shipping and handling, which means no matter how many DVD you buy, you have to pay a flat fee for $6  

So our function is:

y = 16x + 6 where:

y is total cost

x is the number of DVD you buy (x>0)
