A = (-7,-6)

B = (8,-9)

Find the slope of line AB

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-9-(-6))/(8-(-7))

m = (-9+6)/(8+7)

m = -3/15

m = -1/5

The slope of line AB is -1/5.

Flip the fraction and the sign to go from -1/5 to +5/1 = 5. The perpendicular slope is 5.

Let m = 5.

Use the coordinates of point C (2,12) along with the perpendicular slope to get

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 12 = 5(x - 2)

y - 12 = 5x - 10

y = 5x - 10+12

y = 5x + 2

Lastly, convert this to standard form

y = 5x + 2

5x+2 = y

5x+2-y = 0

5x-y = -2

Choice A is the closest match, but the -56 should be -2 instead. It seems like your teacher made a typo somewhere.

Answer:

5x - y = -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of this altitude line has a slope = -1/m where m is the slope of line AB . It will also pass through the point C.

The slope of line AB = (-9 - (-6)) / (8 - (-7))

= -3/15

= -1/5

So the slope  of the required line = -1 / -1/5 = 5.

Using the point C and the point-slope form of a line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 12 =  5(x - 2)

y - 5x = -10 + 12

y - 5x = 2

5x - y = -2.

For the annual rate of change of +70%, find the corresponding growth or Decay Factor.
omeli [17]
Hello there!
1. Okay. So 70% is positive, so it is a corresponding growth. 70% is 0.7 in decimal form. C and D are both eliminated, because that's too large. When something grows by 70%, that is less than double. 0.7 is not right either, because that's more of a decay than a growth. The only answer that makes sense id 1.70, because you are going up, and adding 1 to decimal form brings you to the decimal that when multiplied will bring you to the total. The answer is B: 1.70.

2. So, -75% is negative, so it is a decay factor. A is eliminated, because it makes no sense and B is out, because that represents growth, not decay. You lose 75% of the amount overtime compounded, but you still have 25% that remains. To find that amount, you would subtract that amount from 1 to get the decay. 1 - 0.75 is 0.25. The decay factor is 0.25. The answer is D: 0.25.

olganol [36]

Answer: $43146

Step-by-step explanation:

So his total earning is $54,000. He has to pay $201 for every $1,000 he earns. So 54,000/1,000= 54. So now he has to pay 54*201=10854, 54000-10854=43146. His net income for this year is $43146.

Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points) (08.02)A pair of equations is shown below. x + y = 5 y = one halfx + 2 If the two equ
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

(2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is  x+y=5

The second equation is y=\frac{1}{2}x+2

When we graph these two equations, <em>they will meet at a point which represent the solution of the two equations</em>.

We can solve the two equations simultaneously to determine their point of intersection.

Let us substitute the second equation into the first equation to get;

x+\frac{1}{2}x+2=5

Multiply through by 2 to get;

2x+x+4=10

Group similar terms to obtain;

2x+x=10-4

Simplify;

3x=6

Divide both sides by 3;

\Rightarrow x=2

Put x=2 into the second equation;

y=\frac{1}{2}(2)+2

\Rightarrow y=1+2

\Rightarrow y=3

Therefore the graphs of the two functions intersect at (2,3)

See graph in attachment.
