Answer:

\frac {1}{4} is slope for line D

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1:  Find the slope of the line D </u>

<em>Flip the sign on Line C </em>

-4 was previous

4 is new

<em>Convert to reciprocal </em>

4 was previous

1/4 is new

Answer: \frac {1}{4} is slope for line D

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the steepness of a line.

The slope of a perpendicular line is always the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line it is perpendicular with.

Since line C has a slope of -4, the negative reciprocal of that is 1/4.

Reciprocals are two numbers that multiply together to get 1.

For example, -1/4*-4/1=1

Therefore the negative recipricol is 1/4

A stone is thrown vertically upward from a platform that is 20 feet high at a rate of 160 ft/sec. Using the quadratic function h
Illusion [34]

Answer:

5 seconds

1220 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Know when the stone reaches the maximum height

We know the maximum or minimum height of a parabola is at the vertex so we need to find the vertex

Step 2: Calculate the vertex

The t coordinate of the vertex can be calculated with \frac{-b}{2a}

b = 160

a = 16

t=\frac{-(160)}{2(-16)}\\t=\frac{-160}{-32}\\t=5

Step 3: We know the t coordinate we can find the height at that time

h_{(t)} =-16(5)^{2} +160(5)+20\\h_{(t)}=16(25)+ (800)+20\\h_{(t)}=400+ 800+20\\h_{(t)}=1220

Therefore the stone reaches its maximum height of 1220 ft in 5 secs

A shipping container is in the shape of a right rectangular prism with a length of 7.5
katrin [286]

Answer:

about 1036 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

First we'll find the volume, then we'll use that to get the weight.

V = lwh

  = 7.5 * 14 * 10.5

  = 1102.5 cubic feet

We know that it weighs .94 pounds per cubic foot. The per tells us to multiply.

1102.5 cubic feet * .94 pound / cubic foot

          = 1036.35 pounds

          <u>= about 1036 pounds</u>
