The answer should be y=-4x^2
Answer:
Don
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We make the fractions have common denominators so it is easier to compare them. We can do this buy multiplying 2/3 by a factor of 16, so it becomes 32/48. For 11/16, we multiply by a factor of 3 so it becomes 33/48. It is now apparent that Don has the longer pipe.
First to get the equation you knew to understand one thing about perpendicular lines. The slope of the line is the opposite reciprocal of the perpendicular lines or the new slope is m = 10.
Then you use the formula
y = mx + b
you plug in your values from the point and the new slope.
(1,5) with new slope m
5= 10(1)+b
5-10=b
-5 = b
then make your new equation
y = 10x -5
that's your line that goes through point (1,5) and is perpendicular to the line given
You did not include the graph.
Searching on internet I found a graph with which I can help you. I will solve the question using and so you can understand the problem and solve with the real graph.
1) The slope of line given the graph is calculated as:
slope = run / rise = Δy / Δx = constant.
2) So, you can choose any two points to calculate the slope.
3) Uisng the points (50,20) and (30,10) you get:
slope = [ 20 - 10] / [50 - 30] = 10 / 20 = 1/2
4) Note that that means that the plant grows 1 cm in 2 days
5) The rate of change is 1cm / 2 weeks.
With this you know how to calculate the slope, which is the same rate of change, and the meaning of it, which permits to answer the question from the complete statement and graph.
