What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 4x - 5y = 10 is -5/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

provided the equation;

4x- 5y=10.(let it be equation of line1 )

and the other line be line2

from perpendicularty principle

M1×M2= -1

BUT for M1(slope of line L1)

y= mx+c

where "c" is constant value.

"m" is slope.

therefore

5y= 4x - 10

(dividing by five throughout)

y=(4x/5) - 2

y= (4/5)x - 2

therefore M1= (4/5)

Returning back to our principle

M1×M2= -1

(4/5)M2=-1

<u>M2= -5/4</u>

Find the greatest possible error for each measurement.<br> 12.3 L
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

the GPE is 1/2 the unit of measure used to make the measurement or you say 1/2 the most precise unit

12.3 L has 0.1 as the most precise unit of measure, so 1/2 of 0.1 is 0.05 L which is c. above

look at it this way: 12.3 can be any number between 12.25 and 12.34 rounded to the nearest tenth

any number from 12.25 to 12.34 rounded to the nearest tenth gives you 12.3, so the GPE that you can possibly make is 0.05; if the number was 12.24 it would round down to 12.2 not up to 12.3 and if the number was 12.35 it would round up to 12.4 not round down to 12.3, so again the greatest possible error that you can make is 0.05
