The answer is very simple .

First you need to determine the slope, which is the reciprocal of the first line.

Then,

y = mx + b

m => -1/m

The perperdicular line has a new slope equal to m = -1/2

In the formula (y - y1) = m ( x - x1 ) + b , you should sustitude this value.

So the final equation will be

-3 = -1/2 (0) + b

b = - 3

y = (-1/2)x - 3

That is the solution

Velida took out a 5/1 variable-rate mortgage for $150,000. The interest rate

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The amortization period in months is:

30 years * 12 = 360 months

The monthly interest rate would be 5.25%/12 = 0.004375

The payment for monthly mortgage formula would be:

$E=\frac{C*r}{1-(1+r)^{-n}}$

Where

E is the monthly mortgage payment

C is the cost of mortgage, cost is $150,000

r is the monthly rate of interest, which is 0.004375

n is the period, in months, which is 360

Substituting, we get our answer:

$E=\frac{C*r}{1-(1+r)^{-n}}\\E=\frac{150,000*0.004375}{1-(1+0.004375)^{-360}}\\E=\frac{656.25}{1-(1.004375)^{-360}}\\E=\frac{656.25}{0.7923}\\E=828.31$

So, the correct answer is B

Using your own words, explain direct and inverse proportionality. (Be sure to use complete sentences.)

Lerok [7]

The number of pencils is directly proportional to the cost. ... Two values x and y are inversely proportional to each other when their product xy is a constant (always remains the same). This means that whenx increases y will decrease, and vice versa, by an amount such that xyremains the same.

a. 2L+2W≥40

thats equal to 12+2W≥40 since it says the length is 6

That means 2W≥28

That means width ≥ 14
