Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.
A line perpendicular to it must therefore be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation
x = c
where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.
The line passes through (3, 5) with x- coordinate 3 , thus
x = 3 ← equation of perpendicular line
Answer:
12 if x_y
Step-by-step explanation:
12= 3x4 (I'm sorry for this, I need points)
Answer:
68 plants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of plants that Reuben bought from the nursery.
We have been given that Reuben bought a whole bunch of plants at the nursery the other day. Right away, five died. So number of plant left would be
.
We are also told that then our dog dug up 2/9 of them. So number of plants left after dug-up would be
.
Further a rabbit came and ate ½ of what was left. So number of plants left would be
.
Since Reuben had only 7 plants left, so we will equate our expression with 7 and solve for x as:





Therefore, Reuben bought 68 plants at the nursery.
So the percentage would be 40% and then the ratio would be 3:4
Answer:
-1.5x + 70
Step-by-step explanation:
Total money he takes while going to the fair = $90
Money he spends to enter the fair = $5
Money he spends on food =$15
Total he spent now is given by
Now, he spend on rides at the fair i.e. 1.50 per ride .
Let the number of rides be x
So, cost incurred on rides = 1.5x
So, the spending money can be expressed as
Now, remaining money left to him after spending on x rides too is
Let f(x) denotes the function used to determine the money he has left over after rides .
So it becomes
f(x) = 70 - 1.50x
f (x) = -1.50x +70
