Answer:
y = -1/5 x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 5x - 4
m = 5
Slope of perpendicular = -1/5
Equation of perpendicular:
y = mx + b
y = -1/5 x + b
Use point (15, -1) for x and y, and solve for b.
-1 = -1/5(15) + b
-1 = -3 + b
b = 2
Equation of perpendicular:
y = -1/5 x + 2
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope of BC :
⇒ m (BC) = -1 - 5 / -3 - 5
⇒ m (BC) = -6/-8
⇒ m (BC) = <u>3/4</u>
Now, since AD is the altitude of BC, we can say the altitude is perpendicular to BC.
Hence, the slope of a perpendicular line is equal to the negative reciprocal of the original line.
⇒ m (AD) = - (1/m(BC))
⇒ m (AD) = - (1/(3/4))
⇒ m (AD) = -4/3
Well, the average of a sum of number is found by adding each given number and dividing that number by the amount of given numbers.
Example: 5+4+3+8=20
and 20/4 = 5, the average of the numbers
