Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=7/5x+6 and that passes through the point (2,-6)

First look at the slope. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope of the given line.
y = -5/7x + ?
Now to find the y-intercept, substitute the given points (2, -6) into the equation and solve for b.
y = mx + b
-6 = -5/7(2) + b
-6 = -10/7 + b
Now get rid of -10/7 by using the subtraction property of equality (so add 10/7 to -10/7 to cancel it out and to -6)
-32/7 = b

The correct answer would be y = -5/7x - 32/7 (or y = -5/7x - 4.57 depending on which format it's wanted in)

Answer:

y = 100 2^h

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for growth is given by

y = ab^x

where a is the initial value and b is the growth rate

a = 100

b = 2 since we are doubling

x is the amount of time = h

y = 100 2^h

the bus bound for northtown departs every 15 minutes and the bus for eastown departs every 18 minutes from the central station.
USPshnik [31]

Considering the least common factor of 15 and 18, it is found that they will depart from the central station at the same time at 11 AM.

<h3>How to find the time it takes for periodic events to repeat at the same time?</h3>

To find the time that passes between the events happening at the same time, we need to find the least common multiple of the periods.

In this problem, the periods are of 15 and 18, hence their lcm is found as follows:

15 - 18|2

15 - 9|3

5 - 3|3

5 - 1|5

1 - 1

Hence:

lcm(15,18) = 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 90 minutes.

They will depart from the central station at the same time in 90 minutes from 9:30 AM, hence at 11 AM.
