Answer:

y = −3x − 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y= x/3 + 6.

The slope of the perpendicular line is negative inverse: m = −3.

So, the equation of the perpendicular line is y = −3x + a.

To find a, we use the fact that the line should pass through the given point:

−2 = (−3) ⋅ (−7) + a.

Thus, a = −23.

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = −3x − 23.

Answer: y =−3x − 23

Fred is making a bouquet of carnations and roses. The carnations cost $5.25 in all. The roses cost $1.68 each. How many roses di
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

8 roses

Step-by-step explanation:

First start by subtracting $18.69 by $5.25 because you already know how much the carnations cost and how much the bouquet cost in all. When you subtract 18.69 by 5.25 you should get $13.44. If each rose cost $1.68 then divide 13.44 by 1.68 to get the amount of roses in the bouquet.

Price last week = $6.00
Price this week = $7.20

Increased = $7.20 - $6.00 = $1.20

Answer : Percentage increased = $1.20/$6.00 x 100 = 20%

Question (2):

Original Price = $90

Marked down = 35% of $90 = 0.35 x 90 = $31.50

Price after marked down = $90 - $31.50 = $58.50
