The equation in standard form for the line that passes through (5, -2) and is perpendicular to 3x - 4y = 12 is 4x + 3y = 14

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that line that passes through (5, -2) and is perpendicular to 3x - 4y = 12

We have to find the equation of line

<em><u>The slope intercept form is given as:</u></em>

y = mx + c  ------ eqn 1

Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y-intercept

<em><u>Let us first find the slope of line</u></em>

Given equation of line is 3x - 4y = 12

On rearranging the above equation to slope intercept form,

3x - 4y = 12

4y = 3x - 12

y = \frac{3}{4}x - 3

On comparing the above equation with slope intercept form,

m = \frac{3}{4}

Thus the slope of line is m = \frac{3}{4}

We know that product of slope of given line and slope of line perpendicular to given line is always -1

slope of given line x slope of line perpendicular to given line = -1

\begin{array}{l}{\frac{3}{4} \times \text { slope of line perpendicular to given line }=-1} \\\\ {\text {slope of line perpendicular to given line }=\frac{-4}{3}}\end{array}

Now we have to find the equation of line with slope m = \frac{-4}{3} and passes through (5, -2)

Substitute m = \frac{-4}{3} and (x, y) = (5, -2) in eqn 1

-2 = \frac{-4}{3}(5) + c\\\\-2 = \frac{-20}{3} + c\\\\-6 = -20 + 3c\\\\3c = 14\\\\c = \frac{14}{3}

<em><u>The required equation of line is:</u></em>

Now substitute m = \frac{-4}{3} and c = \frac{14}{3}

y = \frac{-4}{3}x + \frac{14}{3}

The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C

x and y are variables and A, B, and C are integers

Rewriting the above equation,

y = \frac{-4}{3}x + \frac{14}{3}

3y = -4x + 14

4x + 3y = 14

Thus the equation of line in standard form is found out

A square rug has an area 80ft which is the best approximation of the length of one side of the rug.....Explain...If you can show
kow [346]
So to find the answer, first we need to understand how to approximate square roots. 80 is an imperfect square, so we're going to have to round the answer. To find that, we need to find the multiples 80.

72, 80, 81.
8, x, 9

So the distance apart between 72 and 81 is 9. The answer, x, is obviously between 8 and 9, and since the distance between these to is 9, your answer is going to be 8.9 .

___________ is a standard of measure for a physical quantity and is included as part of the x and y axes labels on a line graph.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Unit of measure

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit of measure

When we construct any type of graph the unit of measure needs to be present, becuase the numbers without units are just numbers and with just the numbers we can't have physical interpretation of the situation.

For this reason is importatn to include the units of meausre with the plots since with that we have a point of reference for the variables used.

And satisfy the condition "A standard of measure for a physical quantity and is included as part of the x and y axes labels on a line graph."

Does 21, 10, and 9 be the measures of the sides of a triangle
musickatia [10]

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.

9+10 > 21

19 >21

This is not true so it cannot make a triangle
