What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line that goes through (5,4) and (-2,-3)?

First, let us solve for the slope of the line which it intersects with:

m’ = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

m’ = (-3 – 4) / (-2 – 5)

m’ = 1

 

The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal, therefore:

m = - 1 / m’

m = - 1 / 1

m = -1

 

<span>So the slope of the line is -1.</span>

Can someone please answer these for me? Would be helpful if they were done before the end of today. Thanks xo

1. men to women = 1:2, 1+2 = 3 people total, 3 = denominator, women = 2 = numerator, so 2/3 women

2. plain to milk = 3:2, 5 total, 5 = denominator
 a. plain = 3 = numerator, 3/5 plain 
 b. milk = 2 = numerator, 2/5 milk

3. children to adults = 3:5, total = 8 = denominator
 a. children = 3 = numerator, 3/8 children
 b. adults = 5 = numerator, 5/8 adults

4. blue to red to black = 5:1:3, total = 9 =  denominator
 a. red = 1 = numerator, 1/9 red
 b. blue = 5 = numerator, 5/9 blue

5. 2/3 female, 3 total monkeys, so 2 female and 1 male, female to male = 2:1

6. 1/2 female, 2 meerkats total, so 1 female and 1 male, female to male = 1:1

4. Referring back to question 3. Determine the five vertices of the feasible region, given the constraints
erastova [34]

O( 0,0 ) A(9 , 0 ) D( 0,3 ) ( 9, 2) , ( 6 , 3 ) that are vertices of the feasible region.

What do math vertices mean?

  • The spots where two or more line segments or edges intersect are known as vertices in forms (like a corner). Vertex is the singular form of vertices.
  • For instance, a cone only has one vertex whereas a cube has eight. Although vertices are occasionally referred to as corners, the term "vertex" is preferable when discussing 2D and 3D designs.

The line 2x + 6y = 30

when x = 9 , 18 + 6y = 30

                     y = 2

So B = ( 9, 2)

So, C= ( b , 3 )

then , we can show O( 0,0 ) A(9 , 0 ) D( 0,3 )
