-Find The Equation Of The Line Thatis Perpendicular To Y = -2x - 9 Andcontains The Point (8, -4).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x-8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The final answer is in the slope-intercept form, which is y=mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line (the line it is perpendicular to). Thus, let's find the slope of the given line first.

Given line: y= -2x -9

The above equation is already in the slope-intercept from and thus, the slope is the coefficient of x.

Slope of given line= -2

The coefficient is the number that comes before a variable and it includes the positive or negative sign, which explains why the slope of the given line is -2 instead of 2.

Slope of perpendicular line= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Substitute the value of the slope into the equation:
[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x+c[/tex]

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordiantes the line passes through.

When x= 8, y= -4,

[tex]-4=\frac{1}{2}(8)+c[/tex]

-4= 4 +c

c= -4 -4

c= -8

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular line is [tex]\bf{y=\frac{1}{2} x-8}[/tex].

What is reciprocal?

The reciprocal of a number is 1 divided by that numberFor example, the reciprocal of 2 is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]In this question, we are interested in negative reciprocal. This means that if the slope of the given line is m, the slope of the perpendicular line is [tex]-\frac{1}{m}[/tex].

Keisha received a $90 gift card for a coffee store. She used it in buying some coffee that costs $8.47 per pound. After buying the coffee, she had $47.65 left on her card. How many pounds of coffee did she buy?

Answers

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

It sounds like you want to know how many pounds of coffee Latoya bought. First, let's figure out how much she spent. Subtract the amount she has left from the amount she started out with:

90 - 57.68 = 32.32

Latoya spent $32.32 on coffee. Since it cost $8.08 per pound, we can divide the total cost by 8.08 to figure out how many pounds she bought:

32.32/8.08 = 4

A science lab has several beakers containing different amounts of the same liquid, as shown in the line plot.


If all the liquid from the beakers is poured into one empty container that can hold exactly 4 liters, how much more liquid can the container hold?
liter(s)

Answers

Answer:

4/8 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert all size to x/8

1/4=2/8 and 1/2=4/8

Multiply size of beaker by how many there are filled

1/8 * 2= 2/8

2/8*7= 14/8

4/8*3 =12/8

then add all of them together = 28/8

convert 4 liters to 32/8

Subtract 32/8 - 28/8 = 4/8

The variance is a measure of the dispersion and its value is lower for tightly grouped data than for widely spread data. In the example above, the variance is 27.

​m∠R=​
°

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cos(R) = adjacent / hypotenuse

Adjacent is the side connected to the angle

Adjacent = 12

Hypotenuse = 13

Cos(R) = 12 / 13 = .9231

Now you find R by taking the inverse cos of (R). On most calculators it is 2nd function cos

R = cos-1(0.9231)

Answer: R = 22.62 degrees

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow sinR=\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]

[tex]\\ \rm\Rrightarrow sinR=\dfrac{5}{13}[/tex]

25 Points!! What is the volume of the prism 1 1/2ft 3 1/2ft 2 1/2 ft? Please answer when you have the time to.

Answers

Answer:

The first one: 13.125 ft³

The second one: 67.5 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first one:

The volume of a prism is length x width x height.

So, in this shape, the length is 3 1/2, the width is 2 1/2, and the height is 1 1/2.

However, you can conver 1/2 to .5, to make it easier to multiply.

So, 3.5 x 2.5 x 1.5 = 13.125

Make sure to add ft³, the ft is the unit, feet, and the ³ is used to denote volume, because volume is 3  dimensional.

For the second one, same formula:

Length = 6, width = 2 1/2, and height = 4 1/2

6 x 2.5 x 4.5 = 67.5

Again, make sure to add ft³, the ft is the unit, feet, and the ³ is used to denote volume, because volume is 3 dimensional.

Answer:

13.125 [tex]ft^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume is base * length * height.

In this case, the dimensions are 1.5, 3.5, and 2.5.

Assuming these values are the base, length, and height,

1.5 * 3.5 * 2.5 = 13.125 [tex]ft^{3}[/tex].

Also, using the volume formula, the bottom shape's volume is 67.5 [tex]ft^{3}[/tex].
