Which of these lines is perpendicular to the line y = 3x + 2?

Mathematics

Scrat [10]1 year ago
7 0

we conclude that the perpendicular line to y = 3x + 2 is the one in option C.

y = (-1/3)*x + 4

<h3>Which of these lines is perpendicular to the line y = 3x + 2?</h3>

We know that two lines are perpendicular if and only if the slope of one of the lines is equal to the opposite of the inverse of the slope of the other line.

The line equation is:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope.

In our case:

y = 3*x + 2

The slope is 3.

Then a line perpendicular to the above one, must have a slope of -(1/3). By looking at the options, we can see that the only one with that slope is the one in option C, which is:

y = (-1/3)*x + 4

So we conclude that the correct option is C.

Write the rules for determining the sign of the product when multiplying integers. Then, write (4 points)
borishaifa [10]

While multiplying a negative and another negative integer, the product's will be positive. While multiplying a positive and another positive integer, the product will be positive. It means that of the integers have same sign, then their product's sign will be positive. But, if the integers have different signs, i.e., one of them is positive and the other is negative, then the product will have negative sign.

While dividing a negative from another negative integer, the quotient will be positive. While dividing a positive from another positive integer, the quotient will be positive. It means that of the integers have same sign, then their quotient's sign will be positive. But, if the integers have different signs, i.e., one of them is positive and the other is negative, then the quotient will have negative sign.

Write the slope intercept form of the equation for the line that is described in the following function table.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

y=mx+b

m = slope

b = y-intercept

To find slope we use the equation, change in y divided by the change in x. Let's use points (2, 2) and (3, 1).

(2-1) / (2-3) = -1

Meaning our slope is -1 and it will be going down.

Next, we have to find the y-intercept which is the value of y when x=0. When x is 0 y will be 4.

y=-1x+4

You estimate that your friend is 50 inches tall. That actual height of your friend is 54 inches. Find the percent error.
exis [7]
Answer: -7.408%

Explanation: The formula for percent error is:
(experimental - theoretical) / theoretical * 100. The experimental value is 50, or your guess. The theoretical value is 54, or the actual value. The theoretical value is the value it should be.

(50-54)/54 = -.074 * 100 = -7.408%
