The ratio here is 16:436.
The easiest way to solve this is finding how many miles Jim can drive using just 1 gallon. We can do this by dividing both sides of the ratio by 16.
16÷16 is 1
436÷16 is 27.25
so our new ratio is 1 gallon:27.25 miles.
next we simply multiply both sides by 14.
1x14=14
27.25x14=381.5 miles :)
a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
In this case
49x^4y^2 - 4z^2
= (7x^2y)^2 - (2z)^2
= (7x^2y + 2z)(7x^2y - 2z)
Factors are (7x^2y + 2z) and (7x^2y - 2z)
Answer:
D) 7x^2y + 2z
Answer:
The perpendicular line is:
y = 1/3 x + 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The given equation can be reduced to its slope-intercept form as shown below:
3x + 9y = 8y - 2
subtract 8 y from both sides
3 x + y = -2
subtract 3 x from both sides
y = - 3 x -2
therefore we know that the slope of this line is -3, and then, a perpendicular line to it must have slope given by the "opposite of the reciprocal" of this slope. That is, the slope of any perpendicular line to this one must be: 1/3
We use this slope to find the equation of the line passing through the point (13. 5)
y = 1/3 x + b
passing through (13, 5) means:
5 = 1/3 (13) + b
therefore, we can find b from the above equation
b = 5 - 13/3 = 15/3 - 13/3 = 2/3
Then the equation of this perpendicular line is:
y = 1/3 x + 2/3
