Answer: y = -2/3x + 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a perpendicular line is opposite reciprocal --> -2/3
Using point given (-2, 3), find b.
3 = -2(-2/3) + b
3 = 4/3 +b
5/3 = b

5x +1 = -3+10x how do you solve this

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

x = 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Group like terms together. Start by subtracting 1 from both sides, obtaining

5x = -4 + 10x.

Then combine the x terms, obtaining 4 = 5x.

Solving for x by dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 4/5.

Cheryl plans to bake cookies tomorrow and needs to purchase chocolate chips and pecans for no more than $25 total. Chocolate chi

boyakko [2]

The inequality that correctly represents this scenario is given as follows:

$2x + 5y \leq 25$

The graph is given at the end of the question.

<h3>What is a system of inequalities?</h3>

A system of inequalities is when two or more variables are related, and inequalities are built to find the values of each variable.

In this problem, the variables are given as follows:

Variable x: number of chocolate chips purchased.

Variable y: number of pecans sold.

Chocolate chips are $2 per pound and pecans are $5 per pound. She wants to spend at most $25, hence:

$2x + 5y \leq 25$

The table shows the linear relationship between the average height in feet of trees on a tree farm and the number of years till

siniylev [52]

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation :

Hn = 7n + 3

where :

Hn : the height of trees at year to-n

n : year to-n (n = 1,2,3,...)

so, the rate of change : increasing 7 feet per year.

How to find the θ in this equation: tan(θ+16°)=1/tan(θ+60°) by using the trigonometric identities?thanks

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

$\huge \theta =7°$

Step-by-step explanation:

$tan( \theta + 16 \degree) = \frac{1}{tan( \theta + 60 \degree) } \\ tan( \theta + 16 \degree) =cot( \theta + 60 \degree) \\ tan( \theta + 16 \degree) = tan \{90 \degree - (\theta + 60\degree) \} \\ \theta + 16 \degree = 90 \degree - \theta - 60\degree \\ \theta +\theta = 30 \degree - 16\degree \\2 \theta = 14 \degree \\ \theta = \frac{14 \degree}{2} \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{\theta =7 \degree}}$
