Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to make a line perpendicular to y=2/3x+5. To do that you have to know that, if we use y=ax+b, a1*a2=-1. That is if a1 and a2 are perpendicular. So we get 2/3*a2=-1. -1/ 2/3=a2. a2=-1.5. We get y=-1.5x+b. Fill in (4,0) on y=-1.5x+b abd we get 0=-1.5(4)+b. b=6

Answer:

y = (-3/2)x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of the line y= 2/3x + 5

slope = 2/3

for two perpendicular lines

slope1*slope2 = -1

so, slope2 = (-1)*(3/2) = -3/2

hence for it to pass (4,0)

slope2=(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

-3/2 = (y - 0)/(x - 4)

cross multiplying

-3x -12 = 2y

the equation of the line is

y = (-3/2)x - 6

Answer:

B x<-8

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x -3> 13

-2x > 13+3

-2x >16

since you will divide both side by a negative number, the operator will change from > to <

-2x /-2 < 16/-2

x<-8

Find the area of an equilateral triangle with a side of 6 inches.
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

9\sqrt{3} in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of an equilateral triangle is calculated as

A = \frac{s^2\sqrt{3} }{4} ( s is the length of a side )

Here s = 6, thus

A = \frac{6^2\sqrt{3} }{4} = \frac{36\sqrt{3} }{4} = 9\sqrt{3} in²

What is the measure of EBC?
kramer

Answer:

To measure EBC colour, the light absorption is detected at 430 nm (MEBAK 2.16. 2 respectively EBC 9.4). ... Then the absorption will be measured in a 10mm cuvette. The sample will be diluted until the absorption is less than 2 Extinction units (E430). EBC colour = E430 x 25 x dilution factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helped
