Answer:

The smallest value of the three numbers would be 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, set the smallest number as x. Then you can set each of the next integers as x + 1 and x + 2. Now we can total all three numbers and set equal to 30 to solve for x.

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 30

3x + 3 = 30

3x = 27

x = 9

Answer:

9 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hours.

We have been given that after a winter storm, the depth of the snow on cherry street was 10 cm. Then, the snow started melting at a rate of \frac{1}{3}, so the snow melted in x hours will be \frac{1}{3}x.

Since initially there was 10 cm of snow, so the depth of snow after x hours will be:

10-\frac{1}{3}x

To find the depth of snow after 3 hours we will substitute x=3 in our expression.

10-\frac{1}{3}\times 3

10-1

9

Therefore, the depth of the snow on cherry street after 3 hours will be 9 cm.

Answer:

A. y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y=mx+b be the equation of the perpendicular line.

Two perpendicular lines have slopes with product equal to -1. The slope of the given line is \frac{7}{8} Hence,

\dfrac{7}{8}\cdot m=-1\\ \\m=-\dfrac{8}{7}

is the slope of needed line.

This line passes through the point (-4,2), so its coordinates satisfy the equation:

2=-\dfrac{8}{7}\cdot (-4)+b\\ \\b=2-\dfrac{32}{7}=-\dfrac{18}{7}

Therefore, the equation of the line is

y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}
