Answer:

It must be 3/2.........

Answer: -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I wrote the equation y-3=3/2(x-4) in slope-intercept form. It's y=3/2x-5, so the slope is 3/2.

To find the perpendicular slope, I found the opposite reciprocal. The reciprocal of 3/2 is 2/3 and the opposite of 2/3 is -2/3

Kameryn types 75 words per minute and is just starting to write a term paper. Joe already has 510 words written and types at a s
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Kameryn will have more words typed than Joe when the number of minutes exceeds 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the number of minutes

y ----> the total words typed

we know that

<em>Kameryn</em>

y=75x -----> equation A

<em>Joe</em>

y=60x+510 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by substitution

Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for x

75x=60x+510

75x-60x=510

15x=510

x=34\ minutes

That means

For x=34 minutes

The amount of words written by Kameryn and Joe are the same.

therefore

For x > 34 minutes

Kameryn will have more words typed than Joe when the number of minutes exceeds 34.

Point R is on line segment QS. Given QS= 5x-2, QR= 3x-6, and RS=4x-2, determine the numerical length of RS.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

The numerical length of RS is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain How to solve the problem</em>

- Point R is on line segment QS

- The length of QS is (5x - 2)

- The length of QR is (3x - 6)

- The length of RS is (4x - 2)

- <em>The length of QS is the sum of the lengths of QR and RS</em>

∵ QS = QR + RS

∴ (5x - 2) = (3x - 6) + (4x - 2)

- Simplify the right hand side by adding like terms

∴ 5x - 2 = (3x + 4x) + (-6 + -2)

∴ 5x - 2 = 7x + -8 ⇒ (+)(-) = (-)

∴ 5x - 2 = 7x - 8

- Add 8 for both sides

∴ 5x + 6 = 7x

- Subtract 5x from both sides

∴ 6 = 2x

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x = 3

- <em>To find the length of RS substitute the value of x in its expression</em>

∵ RS = 4x - 2

∵ x = 3

∴ RS = 4(3) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10

∴ The numerical length of RS is 10 units

Identify the variation as direct, inverse, joint or combined. A = r²
myrzilka [38]

Answer : Direct Variation

Question :

Identify the variation as direct, inverse, joint or combined. A = \pi r^2

We know direct variation is y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality

When value of x increases then y also increases. when x value decreases then y value decreases.

The value of y depends on value of x It means y is directly proportional to x.

Hence A = \pi r^2 is a direct variation.
