First, you need to find the slope of HI.

Find two points. (On the line)

(-5,5) (1,9) I’m just going to use the points for H and I.

Plug it into the slope formula.

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

M= (9-5)/(1-(-5) Switch the sign to be positive, two negatives equal a positive.

M= 4/6

Now, you just need to find the opposite reciprocal for the slope of the perpendicular line.

Flip 4 and 6. Make it negative.

-6/4

Simplify.

-3/2 or -1.5

I hope this helps!

1/4d=1/5g(g+e)-h <br> solve for d<br> Please show your work.
loris [4]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for d, multiply both sides of the equal sign by 4.

4(1/4d) = 4 (1/5g(g+e)-h)

4/4d = 4(1/5g^{2} + 1/5ge - h)

d = 4/5g^{2} + 4/5ge - 4h

Miguel bikes 23 km per hour and starts at mile 10. Gabby bies 28 km per hour and starts at mile 0. Which system of linear equati
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

y = 23x + 10

y = 28x + 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Miguel :

Velocity = 23 km/hr

Starting position = 10 miles

Gabby:

Velocity = 28 km/hr

Starting position = 0 miles

The general form of a linear equation :

y = mx + c

In the scenario above ; the starting points corresponds to the intercept, c

The distance moved per hour (velocity) is the slope (m), which is the change in y per unit change in x

Hence ;

Miguel:

y = 23x + 10

Gabby:

y = 28x + 0
