Answer:
a) x = -3
b) y = (28/27)x -27
Step-by-step explanation:
a) College street has a slope of 0, so is a horizontal line. 2nd Ave is perpendicular, so is a vertical line, described by an equation of the form ...
x = constant
For 2nd Ave to intersect the point (-3, 1), the constant must match that x-coordinate. The equation is ...
x = -3
__
b) Since Ace Rd is perpendicular to Davidson St, its slope will be the opposite reciprocal of the slope of Davidson St. The slope of Ace Rd is ...
m = -1/(-27/28) = 28/27
Using the point-slope equation for a line, we can model Ace Rd as ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1)
y -1 = (28/27)(x -27)
y = (28/27)x -27
Answer:
18 is 72% of 25 which is also known as 28% less of 25
Step-by-step explanation:
18/25=.72
1-.72=.28
.28=28%
25 meters is the same as 250 decimeters tall.. hope this helped
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is simple because they use powers of 10. When something is multiplied by a power of ten, it is essentially moving the decimal point over for every power.
9.46x10^12= 9460000000000
4.0x10^13= 40000000000000
Although 4 itself is less than 9.46, since is is being multiplied by 10^13, it will be one decimal place bigger.
Linear equations are all solved the same way. Figure out the operations performed on the variable. Undo those in reverse order.
Here, the variable is
- divided by 2
- has -7 added.
In reverse order, we undo these operations by
- adding 7
- multiplying by 2.
Whatever we do to one side of an equation, we must also do to the other side. That is how the equal sign remains valid.
2 = m/2 -7
2 +7 = m/2 -7 +7 . . . . . add 7
9 = m/2 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify
2*9 = 2*m/2 . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
18 = m . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify. (You know that 2/2 = 1, and m*1 = m.)
The answer is m = 18.
_____
Check:
.. 2 = 18/2 -7
.. 2 = 9 -7 . . . . . . . true. The answer checks OK.
