here the equation of path is -2x-7=y

let us find slope of this line by using y=mx+b

so slope m=-2

now new path is perpendicular to this path.

product of slopes of perpendiculars is -1

so slope of new path is 1/2

now it passes through (-2,-3) with slope 1/2

using y=mx+b to get value of b

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

b=-2

plugging m=-1/2 and b=-2 in y=mx + b to get the final equation as

y=(-1/2) x -2 is the equation of new path

Assume that BC is tangent to circle A. Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth
Natalija [7]

Answer:

x ≈ 9.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ ABC is right with ∠ C = 90° ( angle between tangent and radius )

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + 14² = 17²

x² + 196 = 289 ( subtract 196 from both sides )

x² = 93 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{93} ≈ 9.6 ( to the nearest tenth )

Please answer the question and please answer correctly... I really need help
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

The treatment decays by half each week.

Step-by-step explanation:

The decay function is given by:

y=a(1-r)^{t}

Here,

<em>y</em> = final value

<em>a</em> = initial value

<em>r</em> = decay rate

<em>t </em>= time

The decay function for one medications to treat dogs for fleas is:

F(x)=4\cdot (\frac{1}{2})^{w}

Here the decay rate is:

1-r=\frac{1}{2}\\\\r=1-\frac{1}{2}\\\\r=\frac{1}{2}

The treatment decays by half each week.
