What is the equation of a line through point (-4,5) that is perpendicular to the line with equation y=-6x+4?

To find the gradient of the perpendicular line, we know that we must do the negative inverse of the current line's gradient

-6x from the old line will now be 1/6x

we are given points on that line and we therefore use the points and the new gradient to find the equation of the line using this formula

y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the gradient

input the values that we have

y-5=1/6(x--4)

rearrange

y-5=1/6(x+4)
y-5=1/6x+4/6
6y-30=x+4
6y=x+34
y=1/6x+34/6
y=1/6x+17/3

Anika [276]

The given measurement of the Instagram photo is "4" by "4". And a poster enlargement is being printed with a scale factor of 8.5 .

So on using the scale factor of 8.5 , lengths of new sides are "8.5 *4" by "8.5 *4"

= " 34" by "34" .

So the new lengths of the enlarged pictures are of dimension "34" by "34" .

A boat traveling upstream goes 84 kilometers in 7 hours. If the return trip takes only 3 hours, what is the speed (in kilometers
Hunter-Best [27]
Speed = Distance ÷ time 

Speed upstream = 84 ÷ 7 = 12 km/h

Speed downstream = 84 ÷ 3 = 28 km/h

Speed in still water = 1/2(28 + 12) = 20 km/h

Answer: 20 km/h
