<span>−1/3b=9
Divide -1/3 on both sides
b= 9 divided by -1/3
Convert the 9 into an improper fraction
b= 9/1 divided by -1/3
Convert the division sign to multiplication while flipping the fraction -1/3 to -3/1
b= 9/1*-3/1
Multiply
Final Answer: b = -27</span>

Two perpendicular lines intersect at the origin. If the slope of the first line is -1/2, what is the equation of the second line
Dovator [93]

bearing in mind that perpendicular lines have <u>negative reciprocal</u> slopes.

now, they both intersect at 0,0, namely they both pass through it, we know the slope of the first one, so

\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{1}{2}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{2}{1}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{+\cfrac{2}{1}\implies 2}}

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 2, and runs through (0,0).

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies 2 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-0=2(x-0)\implies y=2x

29 degrees C to Fahrenheit.​
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

29 degrees Celsius are 84.2 Fahrenheit.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit you can use this formula: F = C * 1.8 + 32.

Here we have F = 29 * 1.8 + 32 which equals 84.2. Instead of 1.8 you can use the fraction \frac{9}{5} if you wish so.

Which question is equivalent to 5+n
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

the answer would be n+5

Step-by-step explanation:

5n is the same as saying 5 multiplied by n

n +5 would equal the same number

for example if n=2 then 5+2=7

and if we used n+5 it would be 2+5=7

and if you plugin n=2 for all the equations the only correct one is N+5

Use the given equation to find the number<br><br> 1/2x-19.7=-4.1
Leokris [45]

Answer:

the number is 31.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1/2x-19.7=-4.1

Adding 19.7 on both sides:

1/2x-19.7 + 19.7=-4.1 + 19.7

1/2x = 15.6

Multiplying both sides by 2:

x = 15.6 * 2

x = 31.2

So the number is 31.2

i hope it will help you!
