Answer:

The parallel line has slope \frac{20}{7}

The perpendicular line has slope -\frac{7}{20}

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

y = mx + b

In which m is the slope.

Parallel lines:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Perpendicular lines:

If two lines are perpendicular, the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

In this question:

We have the following line:

7y = 20(x-3)

Placing it in the general format

7y = 20x - 60

y = \frac{20x}{7} - \frac{60}{7}

So this line has slope \frac{20}{7}

Parallel line:

Same slope, so the parallel line has slope \frac{20}{7}

Perpendicular line:

Multiplication of the slopes is -1. So

\frac{20m}{7} = -1

20m = -7

m = -\frac{7}{20}

The perpendicular line has slope -\frac{7}{20}

Yesterday noah ran 2 1/2 miles in 3/5 hour. Emily ran 3 3/4 miles in 5/6 hour. Anna ran 3 1/2 miles in 3/4 hour how fast in mile
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the speed of each one we proceed as follows:

speed=distance/time

a] Noah's speed:

distance=2.5 miles

time=3/5 hours

speed=(2 1/2)/(3/5)

=(5/2)/(3/5)

=5/2×5/3

=25/6

=4 1/6 mi/hr

Emily's speed

distance=3 3/4 miles

time=5/6 hour

thus

speed=(3 3/4)/(5/6)

=15/4)/(5/6)

=15/4×6/5

=4 1/2 mi/hr

Anna's speed:

distance=3 1/3 miles

time=3/5

speed=(3 1/3)/(3/5

=(10/3)/(3/5)

=10/3×5/3

=5 5/9 mi/hr

Anna was the fastest
