Answer:

Option B) is the correct equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

We are given a line:

5x -2y = -6\\-2y = -6-5x\\2y = 5x + 6\\\\y = \displaystyle\frac{5}{2}x + 3

Comparing the given equation with the general equation of line:

y = mx + c\\\text{where m is the slope of line and c is the y-intercept}

We get,

m_1 = \displaystyle\frac{5}{2}, c_1 = 3

When two lines are perpendicular, then the slopes of lines satisfy:

m_{1}\times m_2 = -1

Hence, a line perpendicular to given line will have slope:

m_{1}\times m_2 = -1\\\displaystyle\frac{5}{2}\times m_2 = -1\\\\m_2 = \frac{-2}{5}

Point slope form of a straight line:

(y-y_1) = m(x-x_1)

To find equation of line perpendicular to the given line and passing through the point (5,-4), we put the following in the above equation of line:

m = \diplaystyle\frac{-2}{5}, (x_1, y_1) = (5,-4)

Equation of line:

y-(-4) = \displaystyle\frac{-2}{5}(x-5)\\\\5(y + 4) = -2(x-5)\\5y + 20 = -2x + 10\\2x + 5y = -10

Option B) is the correct equation.

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:

m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1

The given line is:

5x-2y = -6\\-2y = -6-5x\\2y = 5x + 6\\y = \frac {5} {2} x + \frac {6} {2}\\y = \frac {5} {2} x + 3

So we have:

m_ {1} = \frac {5} {2}

We find m_ {2}:m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {\frac {5} {2}}\\m = - \frac {2} {5}

So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:

y = - \frac {2} {5} x + b

We substitute the given point to find "b":

-4 = - \frac {2} {5} (5) + b\\-4 = -2 + b\\-4 + 2 = b\\b = -2

Finally we have:

y = - \frac {2} {5} x-2

In point-slope form we have:

y - (- 4) = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)\\y + 4 = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)

ANswer:

y = - \frac {2} {5} x-2\\y + 4 = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)

99 POINT QUESTION, PLUS BRAINLIEST!!!

We know, that the <span>area of the surface generated by revolving the curve y about the x-axis is given by:

\boxed{A=2\pi\cdot\int\limits_a^by\sqrt{1+\left(y'\right)^2}\, dx}

In this case a = 0, b = 15, y=\dfrac{x^3}{15} and:

y'=\left(\dfrac{x^3}{15}\right)'=\dfrac{3x^2}{15}=\boxed{\dfrac{x^2}{5}}

So there will be:

A=2\pi\cdot\int\limits_0^{15}\dfrac{x^3}{15}\cdot\sqrt{1+\left(\dfrac{x^2}{5}\right)^2}\, dx=\dfrac{2\pi}{15}\cdot\int\limits_0^{15}x^3\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}}\,\, dx=\left(\star\right)\\\\-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\int x^3\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}}\,\,dx=\int\sqrt{1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}}\cdot x^3\,dx=\left|\begin{array}{c}t=1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}\\\\dt=\dfrac{4x^3}{25}\,dx\\\\\dfrac{25}{4}\,dt=x^3\,dx\end{array}\right|=\\\\\\

=\int\sqrt{t}\cdot\dfrac{25}{4}\,dt=\dfrac{25}{4}\int\sqrt{t}\,dt=\dfrac{25}{4}\int t^\frac{1}{2}\,dt=\dfrac{25}{4}\cdot\dfrac{t^{\frac{1}{2}+1}}{\frac{1}{2}+1}= \dfrac{25}{4}\cdot\dfrac{t^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{3}{2}}=\\\\\\=\dfrac{25\cdot2}{4\cdot3}\,t^\frac{3}{2}=\boxed{\dfrac{25}{6}\,\left(1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}\right)^\frac{3}{2}}\\\\-------------------------------\\\\

\left(\star\right)=\dfrac{2\pi}{15}\cdot\int\limits_0^{15}x^3\cdot\sqrt{1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}}\,\, dx=\dfrac{2\pi}{15}\cdot\dfrac{25}{6}\cdot\left[\left(1+\dfrac{x^4}{25}\right)^\frac{3}{2}\right]_0^{15}=\\\\\\=&#10;\dfrac{5\pi}{9}\left[\left(1+\dfrac{15^4}{25}\right)^\frac{3}{2}-\left(1+\dfrac{0^4}{25}\right)^\frac{3}{2}\right]=\dfrac{5\pi}{9}\left[2026^\frac{3}{2}-1^\frac{3}{2}\right]=\\\\\\=&#10;\boxed{\dfrac{5\Big(2026^\frac{3}{2}-1\Big)}{9}\pi}
