The graph second represents the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 2 option (B) is correct.
<h3>What is the slope?</h3>
The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).
The question is incomplete:
The complete question is:
Consider the equation y = 4x - 2 Which graph shows a line that is perpendicular to the line defined by the given equation?
Please refer to the attached picture.
The given line:
y = 4x - 2
The slope of the line m = 4
The slope of the line which is perpendicular to the above line:
M = -1/4 = -0.25
The graph second has a slope of -0.25
y - 2 = -0.25x - 1
y = -0.25x + 1
Thus, the graph second represents the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 2 option (B) is correct.

Answer:
f(-5) = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=5x+40
plug in x as -5
f(-5) = 5(-5) + 40
multiply 5 by -5
-25+40
add -25 to 40
15

Answer:
2 hours: 3968 <u>[I don't understand the $ sign in the answer box]</u>
At midnight: 12137
Step-by-step explanation:
The bacteria are increasing by 15% every hour. So for every hour we will have what we started with, plus 15% more.
The "15% more" can be represented mathematically with (1 + 0.15) or 1.15. Let's call this the "growth factor" and assign it the variable b. b is (1 + percent increase).
Since this per hour, in 1 hour we'll have (3000)*(1.15) = 3450
At the end of the second hour we're increased by 15% again:
(3450)*(1.15) = 3968.
Each additional hour add another (1.15) factor, If we assign a to be the starting population, this can be represented by:
P = a(1.15)^t for this sample that increase 15% per hour. t is time, in hours.
If a represents the growth factor, and P is the total population, the general expression is
P = ab^t
Using this for a = 3000 and b = 1.15, we can find the total population at midnight after starting at 2PM. That is a 10 hour period, so t = 10
P = (3000)*(1.15)^10
P = 12137
It should be 54 because you half to divide 162 by 3
