Answer: \dfrac{8}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula we use here:

\text{Length}=\dfrac{\text{Area}}{\text{width}}

Given : Jack lived on a farm and has a large backyard.

The area of the rectangular backyard is \dfrac{2}{3}  of a square mile.

If the width of the yard is \dfrac{3}{4} of a mile, then the length of width will be :-

\text{Length}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}}{\dfrac{3}{4}}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{3}\times\dfrac{4}{3}=\dfrac{8}{9}

Hence, the fraction of a mile is the length of the rectangular backyard= \dfrac{8}{9}

Jeannine runs a mobile dog bathing service, and the amount of money she earns varies directly with the number of dogs she bathes
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
The cost of bathing service per dog :
$324/27 = $12


x = <span>number of dogs she washes
</span>y = revenue
so the equation:

y = 12x

1 dog = $12
2 dogs = $12 x 2  = $24
3 dogs = $12 x 3 = $36
4 dogs = $12 x 4 = $48

use these coordinate points to graph it.

x - coordinate = <span>number of dogs she washes
</span>y - coordinate = total cost ($)

Alan says that two lines in the coordinate plane are perpendicular if and only if the slopes of the lines are m and 1m. Identify
mart [117]

Answer:

First, two lines are perpendicular if one has slope m, and the other has slope -1/m (Not 1m as Alan says)

That is the first error of Alan.

Now, there is another error.

If m = 0, then -1/m tends to minus infinity (in this case we would have a vertical line).

But we can not really divide by zero, so we should state that:

m can not be zero, if a line is horizontal, the perpendicular line must be vertical.
