I need to know what was the number of sharpened pencils at 7:07 am?

Vanyuwa [196]

You wrote the equation wrong- he starts with 9 pencils so that's a constant and he sharpens 11 pencils for every minute. The equation would be 9+11x with x being the amount of minutes, which in this case is 7. So you just substitute and solve.

9+11x

9+11(7)

9+77

86

Hope this helps!

what is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y=-3x+2 and passes through (3,-1)

Ivenika [448]

Answer:Answer: y=x/3−2.

Step-by-step explanation:

find the equation of the line perpendicular to the line y=2−3x passing through the point (3,−1).

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y=2−3x.

The slope of the perpendicular line is negative inverse: m=13.

So, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=x3+a.

To find a, we use the fact that the line should pass through the given point: −1=(13)⋅(3)+a.

Thus, a=−2.

Therefore, the equation of the line is y=x3−2.

Answer: y=x/3−2.

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

$(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ - False

$(4,6)$ - True

$(18,12)$ -- False

$(0,0)$ -- True

$(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ -- True

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are

$(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ , $(4,6)$ , $(18,12)$ , $(0,0)$ and $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ ---- missing from the question

Given

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$

Required

Determine if each of the points would be on $y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$

To do this, we simply substitute the value of x and of each point in $y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ .

(a) $(1\frac{1}{2},1)$

In this case;

$x = 1\frac{1}{2}$ and $y = 1$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 1\frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{3}{2}$

$y = \frac{9}{4}$

$y = 2\frac{1}{4}$

The point $(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ won't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 1\frac{1}{2}$ is $y = 2\frac{1}{4}$

(b) $(4,6)$

In this case;

$x = 4$

$y = 6$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 4$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * 4$

$y = \frac{3* 4}{2}$

$y = \frac{12}{2}$

$y = 6$

The point $(4,6)$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 4$ is $y = 6$

(c) $(18,12)$

In this case:

$x = 18;y = 12$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 18$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * 18$

$y = \frac{3* 18}{2}$

$y = \frac{54}{2}$

$y = 27$

The point $(18,12)$ wouldn't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 18$ is $y = 12$

(d) $(0,0)$

In this case;

$x =0; y = 0$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 0$

$y = 0$

The point $(0,0)$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 0$ is $y = 0$

(e) $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$

In this case:

$x = 2\frac{1}{2}$ ; $y = 3\frac{3}{4}$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 2\frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{5}{2}$

$y = \frac{15}{4}$

$y = 3\frac{3}{4}$

The point $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 2\frac{1}{2}$ is $y = 3\frac{3}{4}$
