Answer:

y=1/5x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

In perpendicular lines the slopes are negative reciprocals so the slope of other line is 1/5x

And they intersect at (15,5) to find the y intercept(b)

y=1/5x+b

5=(1/5)(15)+b

5=3+b

b=2

A mother shares a box of 20 chocolates in the same ratio as her children's ages . Calculate how many chocolates each child gets

Anni [7]

So a box of 20 chocolates is divided between a group of people based on age So the ratio for Sibusiso, Dorris, and Freddy is 2:3:5 Add these together, and you get 10 So to find how much each person gets, divide total amount of chocolates by total age So (20÷10) = 2 So multiply each age term by 2 and you have your answer (4:6:10) So Sibusiso gets 4, Dorris gets 6 and Freddy gets 10

Mr.gilliam is 3 years younger than his wife.the sum of their ages is 95.how old is mr.gilliam

Usimov [2.4K]

X = the age of Mr. Gilliam
His wife is 3 years older, so the age of Mr. Gilliam's wife = x+3
The sum of their ages is 95.

$x+x+3=95 \\
2x+3=95 \\
2x=95-3 \\
2x=92 \\
x=46$

Mr. Gilliam is 46 years old.
