Answer: B. No slope


Explanation: The slope of a perpendicular line will always be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line. That means that you first have to find the slope of the given line by using the two points on that line:

Point 1: (-5, 4)
Point 2: (-2, 4)
Slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Slope=(4-4)/((-2)-(-5))
Slope=0/3

If the slope of the initial line is 0/3 and the slope of its perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of that slope, that means the slope of the perpendicular line will be -3/0 which is undefined because you can’t divide -3 by 0.

Therefore, the slope of the perpendicular line is undefined, or in other words, there isn’t an exact slope.

John Sullivan bought a new Brunswick boat for $17,000. He made a $2,500 down payment on it. The bank's loan was for 60 months, a
Rudiy27
John has 17000 - 2500 = 14500 left to pay after the down payment 

Then add on the finance charges 14500 + 4900 = 19400

The total of $19400 is to be paid over 60 monthly instalments, so John will be paying 19400÷60 = $323.30 per month

The cost c, for manufacturing x flags is given by c=x? -24x +39. Find the number of flags manufactured if the cost is $120.
IRINA_888 [86]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  27

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find x when c = 120.

  120 = x^2 -24x +39

  x^2 -24x -81 = 0 . . . . . . subtract 120 to put in standard form

  (x -27)(x +3) = 0 . . . . .  .factor it

Solutions are ...

  x = 27, x = -3 . . . . . values of x that make the factors zero

The number of flags manufactured for a cost of $120 is 27 flags.
