Answer:

trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Rita paid $82 for 5 trees and 1 shrub

5x+y= 82---------1

Lilly bought 2 trees and 1 shrub for $37

2x+y= 37----------2

from 1

y= 82-5x

put the value of y in 2

2x+82-5x= 37

2x-5x= 37-82

-3x=-45

x= 45/3

x=$15

put the value of x in 1

5(x)+y= 82

5*15+y=82

75+y=82

y=82-75

y=$7

Hence, trees cost $15

Shrub cost $7

A pair of perpendicular lines intersect at the point (5,9). Write
maw [93]

Answer:

The equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 2) is y = -9·x/5 + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the point of intersection of the two lines = (5, 9)

The coordinates of a point on one of the two lines, line 1 = (-4, 4)

The slope of a line perpendicular to another line with slope, m = -1/m

Therefore, we have;

The slope, m₁, of the line 1 with the known point = (9 - 4)/(5 - (-4)) = 5/9

Therefore, the slope, m₂, of the line 2 perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 4) = -9/5

The equation of the line 2 is given as follows;

y - 9 = -9/5×(x - 5)

y - 9 = -9·x/5 + 9

y =  -9·x/5 + 9 + 9

y = -9·x/5 + 18

Therefore, the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through the point (-4, 2) is y = -9·x/5 + 18.

$10 growing at 4% is worth $10.40 after one year. for the second year, multiply $10.40 by 4% and add the result to $10.40
Arturiano [62]
$10.40 + $10.40(0.04) = $10.82.

If 12000 people voted in the election,how many people were from 50 to 64 years old
inessss [21]
Assuming that this question is based on a graph, and that this graph tells us that people 50-64 years make up 35% of all the voters, then it would mean that
35%of 12000=\frac{35}{100} *12000=35*120=4200

So, assuming that people at age 50-64 make up 35% of the voters, then 4200 of them voted.
