Answer:
The slope of the line perpendicular would be 5/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
It would be 5/2, because it is considered a negative reciprocal.
Answer: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
12-8=4
12-8=4
4 over 4 is 1
if it perpendicular then it's the opposite reciprocal
hope that help
I'll say the first integer is x. The next consecutive odd number would be x+2. If the sum of the odd integers is 236, the equation would be
x + (x + 2) = 236
solve for x
2x + 2 = 236
subtract 2 from each side of the equation
2x = 234
divide both sides by 2
x = 117
117 is the first odd integer. to find the other integer (x + 2), substitute 117 for x, and you have 117 + 2, which equals 119
The two consecutive odd integers that add up to 236 are 117 and 119.
Let us assume that the number of pieces that can be cut = x
Length of each shelf board = 1 1/3 feet
= 4/3 feet
Total length of board available for making shelf = 18 foot
Then
4x/3 = 18
4x = 18 * 3
4x = 54
x = 54/4
= 13 2/4
As we can see from the above deduction, 13 shelf's can be made from the 18 foot board. There will be about 2/4th of the board remaining, but that 2/4th part will be wasted as it cannot create a complete board.I hope the answer is to your satisfaction and the explanation is clear to you.
Let us say that:
K = age of Kristen
B = age of Ben
From the problem, we make the equations:
eqtn 1: K + B = 32
eqtn 2: (K – 4) = 2 (B – 4)
Simplifying eqtn 2:
K – 4 = 2 B – 8
K = 2 B – 4
Plugging in this to eqtn 2:
(2 B – 4) + B = 32
3 B – 4 = 32
3 B = 36
B = 12
From eqtn 2:
K = 2 B – 4 = 2 (12) – 4 = 20
So Kristen is 20 while Ben is 12.
