Lines k and n are perpendicular

The slope of line k is -6

Fact: The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines = -1

So the slope of line n = -1 ÷ -6 = 1/6

The correct choice is 'D.'

£980 is divided between Caroline, Sarah & Gavyn so that Caroline gets twice as much as Sarah, and Sarah gets three times as

Nitella [24]

Sarah has received £ 294

Solution:

Given that £980 is divided between Caroline, Sarah & Gavyn

Let "c" be the amount received by caroline

Let "s" be the amount received by sarah

Let "g" be the amount received by gavyn

Caroline gets twice as much as Sarah

amount received by caroline = twice as much as Sarah

amount received by caroline = 2(amount received by sarah)

c = 2s ---- eqn 1

Sarah gets three times as much as Gavyn

amount received by sarah = three times as much as Gavyn

amount received by sarah = 3(amount received by gavyn)

s = 3g ------- eqn 2

Given that total amount is 980

c + s + g = 980 --- eqn 3

Let us solve eqn 1, 2, 3 to get values of "c" "s" "g"

From eqn 2,

$g = \frac{s}{3}$ --- eqn 4

Substitute eqn 1 and eqn 4 in eqn 3

$2s + s + \frac{s}{3} = 980\\\\\frac{6s + 3s + s}{3} = 980\\\\6s + 3s + s = 980 \times 3\\\\10s = 2940\\\\s = 294$

Thus sarah has received £ 294

Each output value is equal to the square of the input value minus five

Ivenika [448]

i think that A pair of an input value and its corresponding output value is called an ordered pair and can be written as (a, b). In an ordered pair the first number, the input a, corresponds to the horizontal axis and the second number, the output b, corresponds to the vertical axis.

We can thus write our values as ordered pairs

(0, 0) - This ordered pair is also referred to as the origin

(1, 2.5)

(2, 5)

(3, 7.5)

These ordered pairs can then be plotted into a graph.
