First to get the equation you knew to understand one thing about perpendicular lines. The slope of the line is the opposite reciprocal of the perpendicular lines or the new slope is m = 10.

Then you use the formula
y = mx + b
you plug in your values from the point and the new slope.
(1,5) with new slope m
5= 10(1)+b
5-10=b
-5 = b
then make your new equation
y = 10x -5
that's your line that goes through point (1,5) and is perpendicular to the line given

The rate of change is ____. A.-4 B.-1 C.1 D.4

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: -4

Explanation: To find the rate of change, notice that the y values in the

table decrease by 4 each time and the x values increase by 1 each time.

Therefore, the rate of change, or the change in y / change in x is 4/-1 or -4.

Find the sum. 5k/k^2-2k+1 + 2/k^2+k-2

Alchen [17]

$\dfrac{5k}{\underbrace{k^2-2k+1}_{(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2}}+\dfrac{2}{k^2+k-2}=\dfrac{5k}{(k-1)^2}+\dfrac{2}{k^2+2k-k-2}\\\\=\dfrac{5k}{(k-1)^2}+\dfrac{2}{k(k+2)-1(k+2)}=\dfrac{5k}{(k-1)^2}+\dfrac{2}{(k+2)(k-1)}\\\\=\dfrac{5k(k+2)}{(k-1)^2(k+2)}+\dfrac{2(k-1)}{(k-1)^2(k+2)}=\dfrac{5k^2+10k+2k-2}{(k-1)^2(k+2)}$
$=\dfrac{5k^2+12k-2}{(k-1)^2(k+2)}=\dfrac{5k^2+12k-2}{(k^2-2k+1)(k+2)}\\\\=\dfrac{5k^2+12k-2}{k^3+2k^2-2k^2-4k+k+2}=\dfrac{5k^2+12k-2}{k^3-3k+2}$

A line contains the points (8, 9) and (–12, –7). Using point-slope form, write the equation of the line that is parallel to the

kozerog [31]

For the answer to the question above,
The slope of the line of the line is calculated through the equation,
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Using the first two points in the given,
m = (-7 - 9) / (-12 - 8) = 4/5

The line parallel to this has also a slope of 4/5. Through the point-slope form, the equation of the second line is,
y - -15 = (4/5)(x - -5)

Simplifying gives the answer of,
y = (4/5)x -11

Eliminating the fraction,
5y = 4x - 55

I hope my answer helped you.

A house is 25 feet tall and a ladder is set up 35 feet away from the side of the house. approximately how long is the ladder fro

maks197457 [2]

Use Pythagorean Theorem of a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs of the triangle set up by the house height and the ground, and c is the hypotenuse or how long the ladder is. C is going to be our unknown.

Just plugging in you get 25^2 + 35^2 = c^2. Simplify to 625 + 1225 = c^2. Simplify again to 1850 = c^2. The square root both sides to isolate the variable c. C = sqrt(1850) or approximately 43.0116 feet if rounded to 4 decimal places.

The ladder is approximately 43.0116 feet long.
