Answer:

y = 3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is perpendicular to y = -1/3x + 3, then the slope will be the reciprocal of 3.

y = 3x + b

To find b, plug in the known point of (-1, 4)

4 = 3(-1) + b

Solve.

4 = -3 + b

7 = b

Your equation is: y = 3x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Alternate way of doing this using the point-slope formula.

Since y = -3x + 1 is in y=mx + b format, the slope is -3.

m = -3

The slope of the line perpendicular to y = -3x + 1 must be -(1/-3), or 1/3, since m1 = -1/m2.

Point - slope formula:

y - y1 = m (x - x1).

y - 4 = (1/3) (x - 1)

y - 4 = (1/3)x - 1/3

y = (1/3)x - 1/3 + 4

y = (1/3)x - 1/3 + 12/3

y = (1/3)x + 11/3

Describe how you would use the Distributive Property to simplify (39 × 5). (2 points)
alexandr402 [8]
Use of distributive property will be
(30 x 5) + (9 x 5)

21. the error for x - 28 = 375 is not 347 is because the student subtracted both sides by 28. 347 - 28 is 319 not 375. One must add 28 to both sides of -28 and 375. The -28 and 28 is zero. 375 + 28 = 403.

22. The next three terms are 0.93, 1.02, and 1.11. The rule in the number pattern is one must add 0.09.

A medical office is replacing their existing flooring with carpeting in the waiting and office areas and laminate flooring in th
Dmitrij [34]
So first, you would multiply 10 times 10 to get 100 square feet. And since there are 10 exam rooms, you multiply 100 to 10 and you would get 1000. Then to calculate the waiting area, you multiply 20 times 15 to get 300 square feet. Then the office area would be 25 times 20 which is 500. So you would add up 1000+300+500. The answer comes out as 1800 square feet. Hope this helped! Good luck!

A machine paints 340 toy boats in 45 minutes.Which expression equals the rate per hour?
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The expression for rate per hour is \frac{340}{45}\times 60.

Explanation:

Given:

A machine paints 340 toy boats in 45 minutes.

To Find:

Expression equals the rate per hour?

Solution:

Finding the expression for rate per minute:

\text{{The rate per minute expression}} =\frac{\text{{ (number of toys painted in time given)}}}{\text{{(number of minutes taken)}}}

So, rate per minute expression is \frac{(340 toys)}{(45 minutes)} = \frac{340}{45}

Then, rate per hour expression \text{{rate per minute}}\times 60 minutes

So, rate per hour expression is \frac{340}{45}\times60 minutes= 453.334 toys per hour.

Hence, the expression for rate per hour is \frac{340}{45}\times 60
