Answer:
x = - 11
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 15 is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis
a perpendicular line must therefore be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation
x = c
where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.
the line passes through (- 11, - 1 ) with x- coordinate of - 11 , then
x = - 11 ← equation of perpendicular line
A) x + y = 110
x - y = 40
B) Melvin swims for 35 minutes every day.
C) It is not possible
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Let x denote the duration for which Melvin plays tennis and y denote the duration for which he swims
Step 2 :
Part A :
Given that the total duration for which he plays and tennis is 110 minutes
so we have x + y = 110
Also given that he plays tennis for 40 minutes more than he swims
So, x = y+ 40 =>x-y = 40
So the linear pair of equations are
x + y = 110
x-y = 40
Step 3 :
Part B
Solving the above 2 equations we have
y+40+y = 110 = > 2y+ 40 = 110 = > y = 2y = 70 = >35
x = y+40 = 35+ 40 = 75
So Melvin plays tennis for 75 minutes and swims for 35 minutes every day.
Step 4 :
Part C
Given he plays and swims for 110 mins exactly, i.e x + y = 110
If Melvin plays tennis for 70 minutes , then x = 70, then the time for which he can swim is 110 - 70 = 40 mins.
He gets only 40 mins for swimming which is not 40 mins more than he plays tennis .
So this case is not possible.
Step-by-step explanation:
so sorry
don't know but please mark me as brainliest please
Step-by-step explanation:
5x = 19 - 4
5x = 15
x = 15/ 5
= 3
hope it helps!
I believed there's a typo in your question
<span>The product of 3 and a number x is 2/3
if so
</span>3x = 2/3
x = 2/3 * 1/3
x = 2/9
answer
x = 2/9
