What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line with the equation y = 6 x + 2

1 answer:

8 0

The slope of a line perpendicular to a line with the equation y = 6x +2 would be -6. Perpendicular lines have opposite - reciprocal slopes. Parallel lines have the same slope.

Find the first, fourth, and tenth terms of the arithmetic sequence described by the given rule. A(n)=-6+(n-1)(1/5) A)-6,-5 1/5,

scoundrel [369]

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is given by relation as follows :

$A(n)=-6+(n-1)\dfrac{1}{5}$

For the first term, put n = 1. So,

$A(1)=-6+(1-1)\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\A(1)=-6$

For fourth term, put n = 4. So,

$A(4)=-6+(4-1)\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\A(4)=\dfrac{-27}{5}\\\\A(4)=-5\dfrac{2}{5}$

For tenth term, put n = 10. So,

$A(10)=-6+(10-1)\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\A(10)=-6+\dfrac{9}{5}\\\\A(10)=\dfrac{-21}{5}\\\\A(10)=-4\dfrac{1}{5}$

Hence, the correct option is (C).

The base of a pyramid has n sides. Write an EXPRESSION for the number of faces of the pyramid.

ser-zykov [4K]

In general, if the pyramid has 'x' sides, then it will have 'x' lateral faces. Total Number of Faces = Number of Base Faces + Number of Lateral Faces. Total Number of Faces = 2 + x. So the formula is F=x%2B2 where "x" is the number of sides that the pyramid has and "F" is the total number of faces.

Find the equation of a line that passes through points (1,8) and (4,4).

daser333 [38]

Step-by-step explanation: Using the equation, y = mx + b, the slope-intercept form, plug in the values you have and solve for b. (m is the slope.) You have y = -8 and x = 4 and m = 1/2.
