A line in point-slope form has the equation
y = mx + b
where m=slope (increase in y for unit increase in x), and
b=y-intercept (value of y where line cuts y-axis)
The original line is
y=(-1/2)x + 11
so
slope = m = -1/2
Any line perpendicular to a line with slope m has a slope of m1=-1/m
So the slope m1 of the required line
m1 = -1 / (-1/2) = +2
and the required line therefore has an equation of
y=2x+b
Knowing that the line passes through P1=(x1, y1)=(4,-8), we can find b using the point slope form of a line with slope m : (y-y1) = m(x-x1)
where m=+2 as found above.
Substituting values, m=+2, x1=4, y1= -8
y-(-8) = +2(x--4)
simplify
y+8 = 2x-8
=>
y=2x-16 (in point slope form)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the perimeter of an isosceles triangle whose equal sides have a size of 10 m each and the angle between them equal to 30°. We need to know all sides in order to find the perimeter of this triangle. Let x be the base of this isosceles triangle.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-3.9% I.e there is decrease in the population
Step-by-step explanation:
Population @ 1990 = 1585577
Population @ 2010 = 1526006
% change =
(1526006-1585577)/1526006 × 100%
= -59571/1526006 ×100%
= -3.9%
