Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Therefore, the volume of the water in the tank 25 minutes after Baxter begins filling the tank is 255 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear Equation; Ax+By=C

A linear equation to model this situation:

8x + 55 = C

Where;

8 is for the rate of gallons.

'X' is the minutes.

55 is the gallons of water the tank already contained.

8(25) + 55 = 255

Where;

8 is for the rate of gallons.

25 is the minutes.

55 is the gallons of water the tank already contained.

Which of the following points lies on the line perpendicular to
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that perpendicular lines have slopes that are opposite reciprocals. if u don't know what opposite reciprocals are, according to study.com they are, "The term opposite reciprocals refers to two numbers that have opposite signs and are flipped fractions of each other." for example, 1/2 and -2 are opposite reciprocals.

also recall that the formula to find the slope of a line is m=y2-y1/x2-x1

to solve this problem, we need to go through all of the options and find the slope of that line using the given point and point (0,4). After that, we need to check if that slope is equal to 1. One is the opposite reciprocal of -1, and -1 is the slope of the equation y= -x+4. if the slope is equal to 1, the line will be perpendicular to the line y= -x+4.

lets do the math now:

option a)

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=12-4/6-0

m=8/6

m=4/3

this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is 4/3, which isnt equal to 1

option b)

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=0-4/6-0

m=-4/6

m= -2/3

this line isnt perpendicular to y= -x +4 cuz the slope is -2/3, which isnt equal to 1

--------------

ok girl i dont wanna do all the rest of the calculations. just keep doing the same thing with all the other options until you find something that has a slope of 1.

toodles! :)
