Let's say that x represents hours that Elizabeth volunteers over 1 week. Katie volunteers x+3 and Siobhan x-1 hours per week. The equation that arises from condition in text is:
3*(x+3) = 3*(x + x-1)
x+3 = 2*x - 1
2*x - x= 3+1
x=4.
Elizabeth volunteers 7 hours
Katie volunteers 4 hours
Siobhan volunteers 3 hours
The equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through the point ( -1 , -2 ) and is perpendicular to the line − 4 x − 3 y = − 5 is 
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>The slope intercept form is given as:</u></em>
y = mx + c ----- eqn 1
Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y - intercept
Given that the line that passes through the point ( -1 , -2 ) and is perpendicular to the line − 4 x − 3 y = − 5
Given line is perpendicular to − 4 x − 3 y = − 5
− 4 x − 3 y = − 5
-3y = 4x - 5
3y = -4x + 5

On comparing the above equation with eqn 1, we get,

We know that product of slope of a line and slope of line perpendicular to it is -1

Given point is (-1, -2)
Now we have to find the equation of line passing through (-1, -2) with slope 
Substitute (x, y) = (-1, -2) and m = 3/4 in eqn 1



Thus the required equation of line is found
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
xy = 42
x+y = - 2 Substitute into the top equation
y = -2 - x Put in for y
x(-2 - x) = 42 Remove the brackets
-2x - x^2 = 42 Subtract 42 from both sides.
-2x - x^2 - 42 = 0 Put in the more normal order.
-x^2 - 2x - 42 = 0 Multiply by -1
x^2 + 2x + 42 = 0
This cannot be factored. It gives complex roots as it is written. I will give you the answer but I kind of doubt the question is correct.
x1 = - 1 + 6.40i
x2 = -1 - 6.40i
Leave a comment if you have a correction.
Answer:
timetaken to produce a playdough =4hours
a batch of playdough is produced in =1/6 hour
in 1hour,it will take 6 multiplied by a batch of playdough=6 batches of playdough to be produced
4 hours of making playdough in a day will produce=4 multiplied by 6 batches of playdough=24 batches of playdough in a day
Consecutive integers are like 1, 2, and 3. They are in a row. Think about plugging numbers in for x. 1 and 1+2 are not consecutive, so A is not the answer. B and C don't start with x, so they aren't the answer. That leaves D, because it starts with x, then goes to x+1, and then to x+2. These are consecutive, because if x was 1, it would be 1, 2, 3.
The answer is D.
I hope this helps :)
