Answer:

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is −35 . The equation of a perpendicular line to y=−3x5+3 y = - 3 x 5 + 3 must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

.MARY WAS TOLD TO RUN AROUND THE TRACK 5 TIMES BY HER COACH. ONCE AROUND THE TRACK IS 5/6 OF A MILE. MARY WAS ONLY ABLE TO RUN A

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

3.61 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of track = 5/6 of a mile

Number times Mary was able to run around the track = 4 1/3 times

Total miles ran by Mary :

(Equivalent mile of the track * number of times Mary ran around the track)

5/6 of a mile * 4 1/3 times

5/6 * 13/3

= 65 / 18

= 3.611111 miles

Hence, total Number of miles ran by Mary is 3.61 miles

“If f(x) and it’s inverse function, f^-1(x), are both plotted on the same coordinate plane, where is their point of intersection

Ghella [55]

Answer:

it is not always possible to find their intersection point for e.g take

y=x-1 it's inverse is y=x+1 so their is no intersection point but generally u find intersection points by equalizing their functions

f(x)=f^-1(x)

Two kinds of tickets to an outdoor concert were sold: lawn tickets and seat tickets. Less than 400 tickets in total were sold. L

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Tickets to sit on the bench (b) = 150

Tickets to sit on the lawn (l) = 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Tickets to sit on a bench (b)cost $75 each.

Tickets to sit on the lawn (l) cost $40 each

350 tickets had been sold

$19,250 had been raised through tickets sales

This forms a simultaneous equation:

b + l = 350 ... (i)

75b + 40l = 19,250 ... (ii)

Multiplying (i) by 40 and (ii) by 1 we get;

40b + 40l = 14,000 ... (i)

75b + 40l = 19,250 ... (ii)

Subtracting (ii) - (i) we get;

35b = 5250

b = 5250 ÷ 35 = 150

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A circle is 360°. Since you only have 3 different types of weather, if you split the ° equally, each section would have 120°. The amount of rainy days is 10/30 or exactly 1/3, so 120° are rainy days.

If you do 30 x 12, it equals 360. So that means that each day is 12°. There were 8 cloudy days, so you can do 8 x 12 = 96°
