Answer:

D. -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When a line is perpendicular to another line the slope will be the exact opposite. For example line A = y = 3x + 5 the line perpendicular to it will be -1/3x.

So -1/2 is the slope of your perpendicular line.

Scientists have discovered a vaccine for a debilitating disease. This year there were 570,000 reported new cases of the disease

Ket [755]

Answer: There are approximately 853827 new cases in 6 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Initial population = 570000

Rate at which population decreases is given by

$\frac{2}{3}$

Now,

First year =570000

Second year is given by

$570000\times (\frac{1}{3})$

Third year is given by

$570000(\frac{1}{3})^2$

so, there is common ratio ,

it becomes geometric progression, as there is exponential decline.

so,

$570000,570000\times \frac{1}{3},570000\times( \frac{1}{3})^2,......,570000\times (\frac{1}{3})^6$

a=570000

common ratio is given by

$r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{1}{3}$

number of terms = 6

Sum of terms will be given by

$S_n=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{(1-r)}$

We'll put this value in this formula,

$S_6=\frac{570000(1-(\frac{1}{3})^6}{(1-\frac{1}{3})}\\\\=853827.16$

So, there are approximately 853827 new cases in 6 years.

25% of €40:00 = €<br> And explain it

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is €10.00

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of 40 is 20. 50% of 50 is 25, so what you do is just take 20 and multiply that by 0.5 or you can just take 40 and multiply that by 0.25.

I really hope this helps you out!

If a rectangular area is rotated in a uniform electric field from the position where the maximum electric flux goes through it t

Greeley [361]

With a uniform electric field, flux go along parallel paths, then flux is therefore proportional to the cosine of the angle rotated.
0 degree rotation => cos(0)=1 => 100% of flux.
60 degrees rotation => cos(60) => 0.5 => how many % of flux?
