Answer:
D) 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes.
The line:
has a slope of
as it is in y=mx+b form, where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.
Since the slope is
, we see that the negative reciprocal slope is
, as
is the reciprocal (flip the numerator and denominator).
From here, we can use point slope form:
, where
is the point. In this case, (3, 1) is the point.
Thus, we have:
as our final equation.
Simplifying: 
And:
, which gives us the y-intercept to be 5.
Let me know if this helps!

Answer:
the equation should be corrected to fit the data of the problem. With the corrected equation a mass of 0.5 grams remains after 150 years
Step-by-step explanation:
for the mass y( in grams)
y=23* (1/2)^(t/45), t ≥ 0.
the initial mass is at t=0 , then
y= 23 grams → should be 16 grams
half-life from the equation = 45 years → should be 30 years
the correct equation should be
y=16*(1/2)^(t/30), t ≥ 0
then after 150 years → t= 150
y=16*(1/2)^(150/30)= 16*(1/2)^5 = 16/32 = 0.5 grams
then a mass of 0.5 grams remains after 150 years
In this relation we have two ordered pairs:
( 5, 7 ) and ( 5, 8 )
For x = 5 : f ( x ) = 7 and also for x = 5, f ( x ) = 8. This is not possible for a function.
Answer:
b ) No. The relation is not a function.
