To find the perpendicular slope you must take the given slope take the opposite reciprocal (aka switch the sign and flip the fraction)

so...

$\frac{-3}{4}$

^^^slope perpendicular to 4/3

Hope this helped!

Answer:

-3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slopes are reciprocal opposites of the original slope. This means that the reciprocal of 4/3 is 3/4, and the opposite of 3/4 is -3/4.

What vaule of x makes th question true? 3x+2(x-5)=50 a. 8 b.9 c.11 d.12

Ainat [17]

Hey Tierra7l,

Lets solve your equation together step by step.

$3x+2\left(x-5\right)=50$

$\mathrm{Expand}\:2\left(x-5\right):\quad 2x-10$

$\mathrm{Distribute\:parentheses\:using}:\quad \:a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac$

$a=2,\:b=x,\:c=-5$

$2\cdot \:x+2\left(-5\right)$

$\mathrm{Apply\:minus-plus\:rules}$

$\:\:+\left(-a\right)=-a$

$2x-2\cdot \:5$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:2\cdot \:5=10$

$2x-10$

$3x+2x-10=50$

$\mathrm{Add\:similar\:elements:}\:3x+2x=5x$

$5x-10=50$

$\mathrm{Add\:}10\mathrm{\:to\:both\:sides}$

$5x-10+10=50+10$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5x=60$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\dfrac{5x}{5}=\dfrac{60}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$x=12$

Hope this helps,

Shen needs to memorize words on a vocabulary list for german class. he has memorized 12 of the words, which is two-thirds of the

katrin [286]

2/3 of the list = 12

2/3x = 12
x = 12 / (2/3)
x = 12 * 3/2
x = 36/2
x = 18 <=== there are 18 words on the list

Sophia uses 18 beads to make a necklace. Three sixths of the beads are purple. How many beads are purple?

joja [24]

Answer:

9 beads are purple

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out how many beads are purple, multiply the total beads by the fraction of the beads that are purple

$18(\frac{3}{6})=9\ beads$

therefore

9 beads are purple

Another way to solve the problem is convert the fraction in percentage

we have

$\frac{3}{6}=\frac{1}{2}=0.50*100=50\%$

If the total are 18 beads

50% is 9 beads

therefore

9 beads are purple
