Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of chocolate cakes = c

Number of lemon cakes = l

Total cakes = 27

c + l = 27 ---------------(I)

Total slices = 170

7c + 6l = 170  ---------------(II)

Multiply equation (i) by (-7) and then add. So, c will be eliminated and we can find the value of  l

(I) * (-7)        -7c - 7l = -189

(II)                <u>7c + 6l = 170  </u>   {Now add}

                         - l    = -19

l = 19

Plugin l = 19 in equation (I)

c + 19 = 27

c = 27 - 19

c = 8

Number of chocolate cakes = 8

Number of lemon cakes = 19

Okay. First thngs first, let's divide each of them. 2.6/1.3 is 2. Now in terms of exponents, we would just simply subtract the powers, because we are doing division. 9 - 2 is 7. The value of the expression is 2 * 10^7. Even writing the problem out in number form (2,600,000,000/130), you can still see the answer to the problem as 20 million. The answer is B.

The equation of a line is y= -1/2x - 2. What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the first line and passes thro
Fed [463]
If two line are perpendicular. The multiply of their slopes are equal to -1. 
First line's slope is: -1/2x because if the line equation is form of y=ax+b a is slope. 
Let say second line's slope is m
m.-1/2=-1  so m=2 
y=ax+b is general form of linear function/equation. (a=slope)
y=2x+b 
If this line passes through the point (2,-2),if we write -2 to y and 2 to x, the equation becomes true. 
-2=4+b
b=-6 
Thus, 
y=2x-6 is true answer.
