What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (1, 3) and is perpendicular to the line 2x+3y=15?

Answer:

<h2>y = -3/2x + 9/2</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

first let's convert the equation to y=2/3x+5

since the line is perpendicular we know that m=-3/2=1.5. now we just need to plug these numbers into an equation.

3=(-1.5)1+b

multiply.

3=-1.5+b

now add 1.5 to both sides of the equation.

4.5=b

change that into a fraction.

9/2.

now using 9/2 as b and -3/2 as m we have our equation:

<h2><u>y = -3/2x + 9/2.</u></h2>

Following refers to the annotated image:
Imagine yourself looking from the top, then the cube shaded blue will be cube 13.  We call this the origin.
After that, follow the 3-D view, move 1 up shades cube 9.
move 1 right gives the cube 10
move another right -> cube 11
move one up -> cube 7
another up -> cube 3
Finally, move one right -> cube 4

Final answer: see image

Can someone please help me with this problem? An explanation would be great, but it can be short. Thank you!!

We are given two points: (4, -8) and (8, 5)

General equation of a line: y = mx + c

First find m (the gradient). There is a formula for this: (change in y)/(change in x) = gradient

(5 - -8) / (8 - 4) = (13) / (4) = 3.25 = m

y = 3.25x + c

Now we need to find c (the y-intercept; the value of y when x=0).

Substitute in any one of the coordinates - let's use (8, 5)

(5) = 3.25(8) + c

(5) = 26 + c

c = -21

The equation of the line: y = 3.25x - 21


I think that this answer is correct - sorry if it seems rushed.

Hope this answer helps :)

Pencils that were selling at three for 25 cents are now on sale at five for 29 cents. How much money, in cents, would you save b
natita [175]

Answer:

We would save $1.52 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

3 the pencil were at sale for 25 cent

1 pencil = 25 cent/3 =8.33 cent per one pencil

5 the pencil were at sale for 29 cent

1 pencil = 29 cent/5 =5.8 cent per one pencil

If we bought 60 pencil in group of 3 for 25 cent

=60/3= 20 pencil

25cents * 20 pencil = 500 cent per 60 pencil

If we bought 60 pencil in group of 5 for 29 cent

=60/5= 12 pencil

29cents * 12 pencil = 348 cent per 60 pencil

From the analysis, the 5 pencil for 29 cent is cheaper are we are going to save: 500-348= 152 cents
