Answer:

x +4y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the perpendicular line can be found by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. The new constant can be found by substituting the point values into the equation.

3x +12y = 3(-5) +12(0)

3x +12y = -15

We notice that all of the values include a factor of 3. We can divide that out to put the equation in standard form:

x + 4y = -5

How do you solve this?

Law Incorporation [45]

Find the soluiton

2x+2y=16
3x-y=4

x+y=8
3x-y=4+
4x=12
x=3
3(3)-y=4
9-y=4
y=5
(3,5)
test them to see if get true statment
obviously the first equatons of 1,2,4 work
1 doesn't work
2, works
4. doesn't work

2 is the same as the first except both euations are just doubled

answer is 2

In a race in which seven automobiles are entered and there are no? ties, in how many ways can the first three finishers come? in

Alinara [238K]

This is a type of permutation problems in statistics. A permutation is a way in which the set of numbers can be arranged or order. In mathematics permutation relates to the act of ordering or arranging all the set of numbers into some sequence or order, or if the set is already in order or arranged its element the process is called permuting. Well, there are seven ways the first place can come in, then 6 ways for a second, and then 5 ways for third... so we multiply the 3 ways to get on how many different ways the first three finishers come in. 7*6*5 = 210 ways

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

x = 3

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC is a 45°, 45°, 90° triangle. The longest side ( 6 $\sqrt{2}$ ) can be $x\sqrt{2}$ while AB and CB are x. Because 6 $\sqrt{2}$ is equal to $x\sqrt{2}$ , you can see that x is equal to 6. Both AB and CB are equal to 6. ΔBDC ( CDB ) is a right triangle ( 30°, 60°, 90° ) so, BD = x, CB = 2x, and CD = $x\sqrt{3}$ . CB is equal to 6 so 2x = 6, x = 3.
