Answer:

y = -\frac53x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

A line that is perpendicular to another has an opposite-reciprocal slope.

Meaning:

  • Flip the sign (+/-)
  • Flip the fraction

The slope perpendicular to 3/5 would be -5/3.

We can solve for the y-intercept by plugging in the x and y values given from the coordinate into the equation with out new slope.

<h3 /><h3>Solve for B</h3>
  • y = -\frac53x + b
  • -5 = -\frac53(15) + b
  • -5 = -25 + b
  • 20 = b

The y-intercept of the new line is 20.

The equation is y = -\frac53x + 20

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

r = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle equation: (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2

Since we are already give <em>r²</em>, we simply just take the square root of 56.25, and we should get 7.5 as our final answer!

Your gross pay is 1,843.45 your involuntary deductions are fica 7.65% federal with holding 9% and state withholding 6.5% how muc
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

1416.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Pay= 1843.45

Deductions

Fica = 7.65% of 1843.45  = 141.02

With holding = 9 % of 1843.45 = 165.9

state withholding =6.5 % of 1843.45 = 119.82

total deductions = 141.02 + 165.9 + 119.82

                           =426.74

Remaining money= 1843.45-426.74

                              = 1416.71
