Answer:

(-2, 8) and (5, -1)

slope: (y² - y¹) / (x² - x¹)

(-1 - 8) / (5 + 2) = -9/7

y = -9/7x + b

8 = -9/7(-2) + b

8 = 18/7 + b

8 = (2.57) + b

b = 5.43

y = -9/7x + 5.43

parallel = same slope

y = -9/7x

perpendicular = reciprocated slope

y = 7/9x

Which number is equal to the expression 7 x 104 + 3 x 103 + 0 x 102 + 8 x 101 + 5 ?

suter [353]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is the way that scientists easily handle very large numbers or very small numbers. For example, instead of writing 0.0000000056, we write 5.6 x 10-9. So, how does this work?

We can think of 5.6 x 10-9 as the product of two numbers: 5.6 (the digit term) and 10-9 (the exponential term).

Here are some examples of scientific notation

Person 1 writes internal operating procedures 3 times faster than Person 2. Most of the procedures took 30 minutes each to creat

ad-work [718]

Person 1 takes 3 hour 10 minutes to complete 9 procedures

Solution:

From given question,

Person 2 takes 30 minutes per procedure

Person 1 writes internal operating procedures 3 times faster than Person 2

So we get, Person 1 takes 3 times faster than Person 2

Person 1 takes 10 minutes per procedure

But two of the procedures for Person 1 took an hour each

So person 1 takes 60 minutes each for two of procedures ( since 1 hour = 60 minutes )

Calculate how long it took Person 1 to complete 9 procedures:

So for first 7 procedures person 1 would take 10 minutes per procedure and for last two procedures person 1 would take 60 minutes per procedure

$time $=7$ procedures $\times \frac{10 \text { minutes }}{1 \text { procedure }}+2$ procedure $\times \frac{60 \text { minutes }}{1 \text { procedure }}$$
