Answer:

y=−3x−22

Step-by-step explanation

To find the perpendicular slope you must flip reciprocals and as well as the signs. Then graph on desmos to see if it passes through (-6,-4)

Ratio is 4:7, smaller volume is 1, 331, find larger volume

viva [34]

If the smaller volume ratio is 4 to 1331, divide 1331 by 4 to get the multiplying factor.
1331/4 = 332.75
Now we multiply 332.75 by 7 to get our larger volume.
332.75 x 7 = 2329.25
2,329 is our larger volume.
I hope this helps!

How do i solve for x

Vladimir79 [104]

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction.
-3x + 6 <= 24
subtract 6 from both sides.
-3 x <= 18
divide both sides by -3, since you're dividing an inequality by a negative number you have to change the direction of the inequality sign.
x >= -6

A fireman is heading towards a forest fire and needs to know how far away the fire is. The person in the fire tower can determin

hjlf

Answer: 3.82 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the shown figure, we can imagine the scene as a <u>right triangle</u>, where the tower is located at the right angle, and the fireman and the forest fire located at each of the other two vertices.

So, since we are dealing with a right triangle we can use the Pithagorean Theorem, in order to find the distance from the fireman to the fire $d$ , which is also the hypotenuse.

$d^{2}= (2.1 miles)^{2} +(3.2 miles)^{2}$

$d=\sqrt{(2.1 miles)^{2} +(3.2 miles)^{2}}$

Finally:

$d=3.82 miles$
