Answer:
y = -1/3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.
The line y = 3x - 2 has slope 3.
The perpendicular line has slope -1/3.
Now we find the equation of the line that has slope -1/3 and passes through (-9, 5).
y = mx + b
y = -1/3x + b
5 = (-1/3)(-9) + b
5 = 3 + b
b = 2
The equation of the perpendicular is
y = -1/3x + 2

Answer:
2662.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent her old salary. Then we have ...
0.065s = 162.50
s = 162.50/0.065 = 2500
Then her new monthly salary is ...
new salary = old salary + raise
new salary = 2500 +162.50
new salary = 2662.50
Answer:
y = 4x / x = 1/4 y
Step-by-step explanation:
chairs = x ( to find out how many chairs there are you have to take the legs and divide them by 4 )
Legs = y ( to find out how many legs there are you must multiply the amount of chairs by 4 )
<span>There are 4 long rows and 5 short rows in the theater. x represents the number of chairs in each long row and y represents the number of chairs in each short row.
So, total number of chairs in 4 long rows= 4x
Total number of chairs in 5 short rows = 5y
Total number of chairs in the theater on a normal day = 4x + 5y
When 2 chairs are added to each long row, the number of chairs will change to (x+2).
So, total number of chairs in 4 long rows will be = 4(x+2)
When 3 chairs are added to each short row, the number of chairs will change to (y+3)
So, total number of chairs in 5 short rows will be = 5(y+3)
Thus, total number of chairs in the theater in rush day = 4(x+2) + 5(y+3)
= 4x + 8 + 5y + 15
= 4x + 5y + 23
Thus we can say the number of chairs increase by 23 as compared to a normal day.
