The curves cross at coordinates (x, y) = (1, 4). The x-value is said to represent the increase in temperature, while the y-value is said to represent the numbers of visitors and those and who leave early.
The "solution" is the temperature change at which the number of visitors is equal to the number who leave early.
Answer:
Remember that the slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals of each other.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 1 - 2x the slope is -2 the value of the x term.
So the slope of the new line using point (- 1, 2) is 1/2.
Now use y = mx + b where y = -1, x = 2, and m = 1/2 .
y = mx + b
-1 = 1/2(2) + b solve for "b", the y-intersect
-1 = 1 + b
-2 = b
The line that is perpendicular to y = 1 - 2x is y = 1/2x - 2
