Answer:

y = -1/2 x - 13/2

Step-by-step explanation:

what is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y-4=2(x-6) and passes through (-3,-5)

First, we need the slope of the given line.

y - 4 = 2(x - 6)

y - 4 = 2x - 12

y = 2x - 8

The slope of the given line is 2.

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, so the slope of the perpendicular is -1/2.

y = -1/2 x + b

We use the given point as x and y and solve for b.

-5 = -1/2(-3) + b

-10 = 3 + 2b

2b = -13

b = -13/2

The equation of the perpendicular line is:

y = -1/2 x - 13/2

Which function has the greatest rate of exponential growth?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find which of the expressions have the greatest rate of exponential growth.

The easiest way to go about this is have a substitution for the term t;

Let’s say t = 6

Thus;

h(t) = 1.18^1 = 1.18

K(t) = 0.375^6 = 0.002780914307

f(t) = 1.36^6 = 6.327518887936

g(t) = 0.86^6 = 0.404567235136

Another way to find this is to express each as a sum of 1

f(t) = (1+ 0.36)^t

g(t) = (1-0.14)^t

k(t) = (1-0.625)^t

We can see clearly that out of all the terms in the brackets asides 1, 0.36 is the biggest in value
