Turn it into slope-intercept form.
2y = -x + 14
y = -x/2 + 7
The slope is -1/2.
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocal, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 2.
For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It is the slope of the line
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
We have the following points through which the line passes:
We find the slope of the line:
Thus, the equation of the line is of the form:
We substitute one of the points and find b:
Finally, the equation is:
Answer:
Answer:
$95 per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of charges is the sum of the cost of labor and the cost of parts. The cost of labor is the product of hours (5) and the cost per hour (x). Then the equation for total cost is ...
total cost = parts cost + hours cost
651 = 176 + 5x
475 = 5x . . . . . . . subtract 176
95 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
The cost of labor per hour is $95.
9x-5, I guess, not sure, but I'm combining like terms. Hope it's right.
The answer is B because every time Nelson mows a lawn, he will earn $15 each.
