Amy: x skirts Betty: 2x skirts Carol: (2x) + 7 skirts If Amy has 18 less than Carol, than Carol's equation minus 18 equals Amy's equation: [(2x) + 7] - 18 = x +18 +18 (2x) + 7 = x + 18 - 7 -7 2x = x + 11 -x -x x = 11 Input the solution for x into the girls equation to double check. Amy: 11 Betty: 2(x) 2(11) =22 Carol: (2x) + 7 22 + 7 =29 Does Amy have 18 less than Carol? Carol - Amy = 18 29 - 11 = 18 18 = 18 the problem is solved

Write an equation of a line perpendicular to the line y = -1/5x -3 and goes through the point (6,2), then use Point- Slope form

agasfer [191]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 5x - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to know that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Give that information, we know that the new line will be the reciprocal and opposite of -1/5. This would be 5. Now that we have that information, we can use it along with a point to fill in the point-slope form of the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = 5(x - 6)

Then we must solve for y.

y - 2 = 5(x - 6)

y - 2 = 5x - 30

y = 5x - 28

Find the distance of the line segment joining the two points (-4 /2 - /12) and (/32, 2/3)

astraxan [27]

Answer: $4\sqrt{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance formula : Distance between points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

$D=\sqrt{(d-b)^2+(b-a)^2}$

Distance between points $(-4\sqrt{2},\sqrt{12}) \text{ and }(-\sqrt{32}, 2\sqrt{3})$ .

$D=\sqrt{(2\sqrt{3}-(-\sqrt{12}))^2+(-\sqrt{32}-(-4\sqrt{2}))}\\\\=\sqrt{(2\sqrt{3}+\sqrt{2\times2\times3})^2+(-\sqrt{4\times4\times2}+4\sqrt{2})^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(2\sqrt{3}-\sqrt{2^2\times3})^2+(-\sqrt{4^2\times2}+4\sqrt{2})^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(2\sqrt{3}+2\sqrt{3})^2+(-4\sqrt{2}+4\sqrt{2})^2}\\\\=\sqrt{(4\sqrt{3})^2+0}\\\\=4\sqrt{3}\text{ units}$

Hence, the correct option is $4\sqrt{3}$ .
