Lines k and n intersect on the y-axis

Mathematics

avanturin [10]2 years ago

a) The equation of line k is:

y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}

b) The equation of line j is:

y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}

The equation of a line, in <u>slope-intercept formula</u>, is given by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

Item a:

  • Line k intersects line m with an angle of 109º, thus:

\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}

In which m_1 and m_2 are the slopes of <u>k and m.</u>

  • Line k goes through points (-3,-1) and (5,2), thus, it's slope is:

m_1 = \frac{2 - (-1)}{5 - (-3)} = \frac{3}{8}

  • The tangent of 109 degrees is \tan{109^{\circ}} = -\frac{29}{10}
  • Thus, the slope of line m is found solving the following equation:

\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}

-\frac{29}{10} = \frac{m_2 - \frac{3}{8}}{1 + \frac{3}{8}m_2}

m_2 - \frac{3}{8} = -\frac{29}{10} - \frac{87}{80}m_2

m_2 + \frac{87}{80}m_2 = -\frac{29}{10} + \frac{3}{8}

\frac{167m_2}{80} = \frac{-202}{80}

m_2 = -\frac{202}{167}

Thus:

y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b

It goes through point (-2,6), that is, when x = -2, y = 6, and this is used to find b.

y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b

6 = -\frac{202}{167}(-2) + b

b = 6 - \frac{404}{167}

b = \frac{6(167)-404}{167}

b = \frac{598}{167}

Thus. the equation of line k, in slope-intercept formula, is:

y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}

Item b:

  • Lines j and k intersect at an angle of 90º, thus they are perpendicular, which means that the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Thus, the slope of line j is:

-\frac{202}{167}m = -1

m = \frac{167}{202}

Then

y = \frac{167}{202}x + b

Also goes through point (-2,6), thus:

6 = \frac{167}{202}(-2) + b

b = \frac{(2)167 + 202(6)}{202}

b = \frac{1546}{202}

The equation of line j is:

y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}

Tj Max is offering a 15% discount on all items .The new price of a pair of jeans is 44.20 .What was the original price
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

$52

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an original price you must find how much of a percent was left before the discount.

100% - 15% = 85%

You then take this percentage a DIVIDE it by the new price.

$44.20/85% = $52 is the original price of the jeans.
