THE ANSWER IS: y=1/2x+4

to find a perpendicular line, get the reciprocal of the slope and multiply by -1
so since the given slope is -2, the reciprocal is -1/2 and multiply by -1 to get 1/2

then put the new slope and the given point into point slope form of a linear equation which is: (y-y1)=m(x-x1)
m=slope= 1/2
given point (x1,y1) = (4,6)
(y-6)=1/2(x-4)

you can multiply this out or get standard form:
y-6=1/2x-2
y=1/2+4

Use a system of equations to solve this problem.

We have to set up 2 equations:
A) x + y = 10 liters
B) .05x + .25y = 10 * .10

Multiply equation B) by -4
B) -.2x - y = -4 then add to equation A)
A) x + y = 10 liters
.8x = 6 liters
x = 7.5 liters of 5%
y = 2.5 liters of 25%

Divide 1 hour in the ratio 1 : 9 : 10

olganol [36]

Answer:

3 minutes; 27 minutes; 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiplier of the given ratios be x. So, the ratios 1: 9 : 10 will become x, 9x and 10x respectively.

Therefore,

$x + 9x + 10x = 1 \: hour \\ \\ 20x = 60 \: minutes \\ \\ x = \frac{60 \: minutes}{3} \\ \\ x = 3 \: minutes \\ \\ 9x = 9 \times 3 = 27 \: minutes \\ \\ 10x = 10 \times 3 = 30 \: minutes$

Thus, 1 hour in the ratio 1 : 9 : 10 can be divided as:

3 minutes; 27 minutes; 30 minutes

Refer to scenario 4. assume that the profit equation is $110x1 + $150x2 what is the profit at corner point (0, 30)?

SashulF [63]

If you have the profit formula which is profit (x1, x2) = 110x1 + 150x2, then by substitution of the given point (x1, x2) = (0, 30), you can find the profit at the corner point profit (0.30 ) = 110 (0) + 150 (30) = 4500.Therefore the profit will be $ 4500
