1/3x + y = 9
y = -1/3x + 9

-2x + 2y = -6
-2x + 2(-1/3x + 9) = -6
-2x - 2/3x + 18 = -6
-6/3x - 2/3x = -6 - 18
-8/3x = -24
x = -24 * -3/8
x = 9 <== here is y

-2x + 2y = -6
-2(9) + 2y = -6
-18 + 2y = -6
2y = -6 + 18
2y = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6 <=== here is x

Which pair of lines are perpendicular
Gnesinka [82]

The answer is A. A perpendicular equation will have the opposite and reciprocal slope as the original equation.


Once converted to the slope-intercept form of y = mx+b, we find the two equations for A are y = 2x-1 and y = (-1/2)x + 3/2. The opposite reciprocal of the first equation's slope (m in the equation form given) is -1/2, which as you can see if the slope of the other equation.

At the school carnival, students are asked to guess the number of marbles in a jar to win a prize. There are 240 marbles in the
Lapatulllka [165]

There is 17% error in the guess.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of marbles in jar = Exact value = 240

Closest guess = Approx Value = 280

Percent error = \frac{|approx-exact}{exact}*100

Percent error = \frac{|280-240|}{240}*100\\

Percent error = \frac{|40|}{240}*100

Percent error = \frac{4000}{240}=16.67\%

Rounding off to nearest whole percent

Percent error = 17%

There is 17% error in the guess.

If f(x) = 4 – x2 and g(x) = 6x, which expression is equivalent to (9-1(3)?
Anni [7]

Answer:

( g − f ) ( 3 ) = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

(g-f)(x)=g(x)-f(x)

=6x-(4-X(2))

=x(2)+6x-4

to evaluate (g-f) (#) substitute x=3 into (g-f)(x)

(g-f)=(9)+(6 x 3) -4=23
