Answer:

  • k = 18

=========

<h2>Given</h2>

<h3>Line 1</h3>
  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0

<h3>Line 2</h3>
  • Passing through the points (4, 3) and (5, - 3)

<h2>To find</h2>

  • The value of k, if the lines are perpendicular

<h2>Solution</h2>

We know the perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes, that is the product of their slopes is - 1.

Find the slope of line 1 by converting the equation into slope-intercept from standard form:

<u><em>Info:</em></u>

  • <em>standard form is ⇒ ax + by + c = 0, </em>
  • <em>slope - intercept form is ⇒ y = mx + b, where m is the slope</em>

  • 3x - ky + 7 = 0
  • ky = 3x + 7
  • y = (3/k)x + 7/k

Its slope is 3/k.

Find the slope of line 2, using the slope formula:

  • m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-3 - 3)/(5 - 4) = - 6/1 = - 6

We have both the slopes now. Find their product:

  • (3/k)*(- 6) = - 1
  • - 18/k = - 1
  • k = 18

So when k is 18, the lines are perpendicular.

In 1995, the moose population in a park was measured to be 4200. By 1998, the population was measured again to be 1600. If the p
Contact [7]

Answer:

P = -2600/3 t + 25600/3

P = -8200/3

Step-by-step explanation:

t is the time in years since 1990, so two points on the line are (5, 4200) and (8, 1600).

Using the points to find the slope:

m = (y₂ − y₁) / (x₂ − x₁)

m = (1600 − 4200) / (8 − 5)

m = -2600/3

Now writing the equation in point-slope form:

P − 4200 = -2600/3 (t − 5)

Converting to slope-intercept form:

P − 4200 = -2600/3 t + 13000/3

P = -2600/3 t + 25600/3

In 2003, t = 13:

P = -2600/3 (13) + 25600/3

P = -8200/3

<u>Area of triangle = (1/2) × Base × Height</u>

Area of bigger triangle = (1/2) × 15 cm × 10 cm

Area of bigger triangle = (1/2) × 150 sq. cm

Area of bigger triangle = 75 sq. cm

Similarly,

Area of smaller triangle = (1/2) × 12 cm × 5 cm

Area of smaller triangle = (1/2) × 60 sq. cm

Area of smaller triangle = 30 sq. cm

Area of shaded region = Area of bigger triangle - Area of smaller triangle

Area of shaded region = 75 sq. cm - 30 sq. cm

Area of shaded region = 45 sq. cm

<u>Answer</u><u> </u><u>:</u>

Area of shaded region in sq. cm = 45

Which is a factor of 6x2 + x − 7?
kvv77 [185]

Solution:

The Quadratic polynomial in variable x is :

→ 6 x² + x -7

Breaking the middle term i.e term containing  variable x

= 6 x² + 7 x - 6 x -7

= x ( 6 x +7) - 1 (6 x +7)

= (6 x + 7)(x-1)→→→Factor of 6 x² + x -7
