Answer:

13.44 or 13 11/25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First use this format: number of essays/hours

- they are asking if all three work together, how many hours would it take, so this means addition:

50/7 + 50/14 + 25/6 = 200/x

Second, solve:

- least common multiple: 42

300/42 + 150/42 + 175/6 = 200/x

625/42 = 200/x

- cross-multiply

625x = 8,400

x = 336/25 = 13 11/25 = 13.44 (any one of these answers would work)

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line with equation y = 5x – 2?
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

- \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 5x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{5}
