Y-3 = -2(x+5)

Rewrite in slope intercept form:

y-3 = -2(x+5)

Simplify the right side:

y-3 = -2x -10

Add 3 to both sides:

y = -2x -7

The y intercept is -7

8090 [49]

Answer: C. Rickys rate was 0.25 more per hour" .

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan received $27 for 6 hours of work. Susan's rate we hour will be:

= $27/6

= $4.5

Ricky received $14.25 for 3 hours of work. Ricky's rate will be:

= $14.25/3

= $4.75

From the option given, the correct option is C "Rickys rate was 0.25 more per hour" .

This is because $4.75 - $4.5 = $0.25

A given line has the equation 2x + 12y = −1. What is the equation, in slope-intercept form, of the line that is perpendicular to

VikaD [51]

Answer:

y = 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- interceot form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 2x + 12y = - 1 into this form

Subtract 2x from both sides

12y = - 2x - 1 ( divide all terms by 12 )

y = - $\frac{1}{6}$ x - $\frac{1}{12}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - $\frac{1}{6}$

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{6} }$ = 6

Note the line passes through (0, 9) on the y- axis ⇒ c = 9

y = 6x + 9 ← equation of perpendicular line

which of these can be rewritten as an exact answer without the square root symbol? √4 √125 √0.6 √12.35 Thank you :)

Goshia [24]

Answer:

$\sqrt{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Because

→ $\sqrt{4}$ is equal to 2

→ $\sqrt{125}$ is equal to $5\sqrt{5}$ or 11.18033989

→ $\sqrt{0.6}$ is equal to $\frac{\sqrt{15} }{5}$ or 0.7745966692

→ $\sqrt{12.35}$ is equal to 3.514256678
