Slopes of perpendicular segments are always negative reciprocal of each other. Or, we can say product of slopes of perpendicular segments is always -1.
Given the slope of PQ is 5/2.
So the slope of its perpendicular segment should be -2/5.
Finding slopes of given options:-
slope \: of \: xy =  \frac{ - 10 - ( - 5)}{4 - 2}  =  \frac{ - 5}{2}
slope \: of \: tu =  \frac{7 - 2}{2 - 0}  =  \frac{5}{2}
slope \: of \: rs =  \frac{ - 6 - ( - 4)}{8 - 3}  =  \frac{ - 2}{5}
slope \: of \: vw =  \frac{9 - 5}{4 - 14}  =  \frac{4}{ - 10}  =  \frac{ - 2}{5}
From above calculations, it is clearly visible that slopes of RS and VW are negative reciprocal of slope of PQ.

So, correct answers are RS and VW.

Chris shoots an arrow up into the air. The height (in feet) of the arrow is given by the function h(t) = - 16t2 + 64t + 112 wher
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

After 2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First step is find an equation of velocity:

h(t)=-16t2+64t+112. The velocity function is derivated from position function, so we should do that.

v(t)= h´(t)= -16*2*t+64 ⇒ v(t)= -32t+64.

Now we know the arrow reach the maximun height when this velocity is equal to zero when t>0.

0=-32t+64 ⇒ 32t=64, split each member for 32 ⇒ \frac{32t}{32}=\frac{64}{32}

t=2. That means after 2 sec. the arrow reach the maximum height

The first four terms of a sequence are shown below: 9, 5, 1, â’3 Which of the following functions best defines this sequence? f(
matrenka [14]

The function that best defines this arithmetic sequence is:

  • f(n) = f(n - 1) - 4, f(1) = 9

<h3>What is an arithmetic sequence?</h3>
  • In an <em>arithmetic sequence,</em> the <u>difference between consecutive terms is always the same</u>, called common difference d.

The recursive function that defines the sequence is:

f(n) = f(n - 1) + d

f(1) = f_0

  • In which f_0 is the first term.

In this problem, the sequence is: {9, 5, 1, -3}

  • Each term is the previous term subtracted by 4, hence d = -4.
  • The first term is 9, hence f_0 = 9.

Hence, the function is:

  • f(n) = f(n - 1) - 4, f(1) = 9
