We need to divide the number of inches by the number of hours.
Let's first convert the two numbers into fractions.

12 1/2 = 25/2

25 1/2 = 51/2

(25/2) / (51/2) = 25/2 * 2/51 = 50/102 = 25/51 = 0.49

The average rainfall was approximately 0.5 inches per hour.

Leah gets to paint her room since she bought a new bedspread set. Two gallons of paint covers 800 square feet. How many gallons
loris [4]

Answer:

3 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If two gallons of paint covers 800 square feet, 'x' gallons of paints will cover 1200square feet room where x is the number of gallons needed to paint the 1200 square feet room.

Mathematically,

2 gallons = 800sq.ft

x gallons = 1,200sq.ft

x × 800 = 2 × 1200

x = 2 × 1200/800

x = 3 gallons

Therefore Leah will need 3gallons of paint for 1200sq.ft room

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point.
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

y = 3x + 2

y = 6x – 3

y = 2/3x + 6

y = –1/3x – 4

y = 2x + 1

Correct answer:

y = 3x + 2

Explanation:

Convert the equation to slope intercept form to get y = –1/3x + 2.  The old slope is –1/3 and the new slope is 3.  Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

With the new slope, use the slope intercept form and the point to calculate the intercept: y = mx + b or 5 = 3(1) + b, so b = 2

So y = 3x + 2
