Answer:

Option C. $\frac{3}{4}\ cups\ of\ nuts$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out how many cups of nuts each person will receive, divide the total cups of nuts by the number of people.

$3\frac{3}{4} :5$

but first convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$3\frac{3}{4}=\frac{3*4+3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}$

substitute

$\frac{15}{4} :5=\frac{15}{20}\ cups\ of\ nuts$

simplify

$\frac{3}{4}\ cups\ of\ nuts$

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{DH}{HE}=\frac{18}{36}=\frac{1}{2}$

$\text{This means that } DH=\frac{1}{2}HE$

and thus the given segments are parallel by the converse of the triangle proportionality theorem.

I need please help. thank you

15. She bought:

3 jeans, $20 each

1 pants, $18

You find the total: 3(20) + 1(18) = $78 then you apply the discount

Since this is between 50-100, you use the 38% discount (decimal form: 0.38)

38% is being subtracted from your total, so you can do this:

100% - 38% = 62% This is your total after the discount

78(0.62) = 48.36 Your answer is C

17. A Budgeting helps you organize and limit your spending and meet financial goals

18. C Liabilities impacts you negatively, since you have debts to pay off

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to 3x+y= -8that passes through -3,1? Write your answer in slope-intercept form. S

Gekata [30.6K]

Slope intercept form of a line perpendicular to 3x + y = -8, and passing through (-3,1) is $y=\frac{1}{3} x+2$

Solution:

Need to write equation of line perpendicular to 3x+y = -8 and passes through the point (-3,1).

Generic slope intercept form of a line is given by y = mx + c

where m = slope of the line.

Let's first find slope intercept form of 3x + y = -8

3x + y = -8

=> y = -3x - 8

On comparing above slope intercept form of given equation with generic slope intercept form y = mx + c , we can say that for line 3x + y = -8 , slope m = -3

And as the line passing through (-3,1) and is perpendicular to 3x + y = -8, product of slopes of two line will be -1 as lies are perpendicular.

Let required slope = x

$\begin{array}{l}{=x \times-3=-1} \\\\ {=>x=\frac{-1}{-3}=\frac{1}{3}}\end{array}$

So we need to find the equation of a line whose slope is $\frac{1}{3}$ and passing through (-3,1)

Equation of line passing through $(x_1 , y_1)$ and having lope of m is given by

$\left(y-y_{1}\right)=\mathrm{m}\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

$\text { In our case } x_{1}=-3 \text { and } y_{1}=1 \text { and } \mathrm{m}=\frac{1}{3}$

Substituting the values we get,

$\begin{array}{l}{(\mathrm{y}-1)=\frac{1}{3}(\mathrm{x}-(-3))} \\\\ {=>\mathrm{y}-1=\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{x}+1} \\\\ {=>\mathrm{y}=\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{x}+2}\end{array}$

Hence the required equation of line is found using slope intercept form
