Write the equation of the line passing through point (4, -1) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2 x - y - 7 = 0.

1 answer:

6 0

2 x - y - 7 = 0
y =2x - 7 slope = 2
perpendicular slope = -1/2
line passing through point (4, -1)
y = mx + b
-1=-1/2(4) + b
-1 = - 2 + b
b = 1

equation
y =-1/2(x) + 1

Given an angle that is 120°, find m3. * O 60 O 100 O 120*

lozanna [386]

Answer:

m3 is 60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles 1 & 3 are complementary angles. What that means is that the two angles equal 180 degrees. We already have 120 degrees with m1, so subtract that from 180 for 60 degrees.

Find the average value of f(x)=2/x over the interval [1, 3].

Zanzabum

$\bf slope = m = \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{ f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{ x_2 - x_1}\impliedby \begin{array}{llll} average~rate\\ of~change \end{array}\\\\ -------------------------------\\\\ f(x)= \cfrac{2}{x} \qquad \begin{cases} x_1=1\\ x_2=3 \end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(3)-f(1)}{3-1}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{2}{3}-\frac{2}{1}\quad }{2} \\\\\\ \cfrac{\quad \frac{2-6}{3}\quad }{2}\implies \cfrac{\quad \frac{-4}{3}\quad }{\frac{2}{1}}\implies \cfrac{-4}{3}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2}\implies -\cfrac{2}{3}$
