Write the equation in slope-intercept form through the point (-4, -7) and is perpendicular to the line y = -(7/4)x + 4 and graph

Scilla [17]

You have to write the equation for a line that crosses the point (-4, -7) and is perpendicular to the line

$y=-\frac{7}{4}x+4$

When you have to determine a line that is perpendicular to a known line, you have to keep in mind that the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative inverse of the first one.

If for exampla you have two lines, the first one being:

$y_1=mx+b$

And the second one, that is perpedicular to the one above:

$y_2=nx+c$

The slope of the second one is the negative inverse of the first one:

$n=-\frac{1}{m}$

The slope of the given line y=-7/4+4 is m=-7/4

So the slope of the perpendicular line has to ve the inverse negative of -7/4

$\begin{gathered} n=-(-\frac{4}{7}) \\ n=\frac{4}{7} \end{gathered}$

Considering it has to pass through the point (-4,-7) and that we already determined its slope, you can unse the point slope formula to determine the equation of the perpendicular line:

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

replace with the coordinates of the point and the slope and calculate:

$\begin{gathered} y-(-7)=\frac{4}{7}(x-(-4)) \\ y+7=\frac{4}{7}(x+4) \\ y+7=\frac{4}{7}x+\frac{16}{7} \end{gathered}$

Subtract 7 to both sides of the equation to write it in slope-intercept form:

$\begin{gathered} y+7-7=\frac{4}{7}x+\frac{16}{7}-7 \\ y=\frac{4}{7}x-\frac{33}{7} \end{gathered}$

Now you can graph both lines

If there are 3 bad guys and 3 good guys then they don't out number the good guys.

Let f(x) represent a function.

STatiana [176]

Answer:

For $f(x+\frac{5}{4})$ , $f(x)$ is translated $\frac{5}{4}$ units left.

For $f(x)-\frac{5}{4}$ , $f(x)$ is translated $\frac{5}{4}$ units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

The transformation of $f(x)\rightarrow f(x+C)$ means that the graph shift to left by C units if C is positive number and shifts to right by C units if C is a negative number.

The transformation of $f(x)\rightarrow f(x)+C$ means that the graph shifts up by C units if C is positive number and shifts down by C units if C is a negative number.

Here, in the transformation of $f(x)\rightarrow f(x+\frac{5}{4}),C = \frac{5}{4}>0$ , so, the function translates left by $\frac{5}{4}$ units.

Similarly, in the transformation of $f(x)\rightarrow f(x)-\frac{5}{4},C = -\frac{5}{4}$ , so, the function translates down by $\frac{5}{4}$ units.

What is the means-to-MAD ratio of the two data sets, expressed as a decimal? Data set Mean Mean absolute deviation (MAD) 1 10.3

aleksklad [387]

Mean -to-MAD ratio is the division of the Mean by the Mean Absolute Deviaion (MAD). For the set 1, mean / MAD is 10.3 / 1. 6 = 6.4375; and for the set 2, Mean / MAD is: 12.7 / 1.5 = 8.467. This is a measure of disperssion of a set of values. MAD is calculated as the sum of the absolute differences of the values and the mean.
