Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a relationship between lines that are perpendicular. Their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other. Example: if one line has a slope of 4/3 then a line with the slope of -3/4 is perpendicular to it (they intersect at right angles).
So to find the slope of a line perpendicular to y = -2/3x + 4 we must know the slope of it. The slope, when the line is in the slope-intercept form (aka y = mx + b), is the multiplier in front of the "x" so in this case it is -2/3. So a line perpendicular to it has a slope of 3/2.
Now that we know the slope (m = 3/2) we can find the equation of the line that has a slope of 3/2 but goes through the point (-2, -2) in a couple of ways.
1) Use the slope-intercept form of a line and plug in the values of x = -2 and y = -2 (from the point (-2, -2) like this:
y = mx + b
y = 3/2x + b
-2 = 3/2(-2) + b
-2 = -3 + b
1 = b
So y = 3/2x + 1
2) We can use the point-slope equation y - y1 = m(x - x1) which works great if you know the value of m (we do, m = 3/2) and some point (x1, y1) on the line (and we do, (-2, -2); so x1 = -2 and y1 = -2):
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - y1 = 3/2(x - x1)
y - (-2) = 3/2(x - (-2))
y + 2 = 3/2(x + 2)
Although it looks different than the other equation, it is really the same. Just distribute and combine like-terms and you'll see it's the same. So either is an acceptable answer for this quest
Answer:
C, E
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to change the equation of a circle from general form to standard form. This is done by making the leading coefficients 1, completing the squares, and then rewriting the equation in standard form.
The leading coefficients of the given equation are 2, so we first want to divide by 2. This gives ...
x² +y² -4x -6y +8 = 0
Subtracting 8 puts us in better position to complete the squares.
x² +y² -4x -6y = -8
Now, we can add the squares of half the coefficients of the linear terms.
(x² -4x +4) +(y² -6x +9) = -8 +13 . . . . . . matches C
And we can simplify this to the standard form equation:
(x -2)² +(y -3)² = 5 . . . . . matches E
His model is incorrect because 20 x 7 is not 14, it is 140. If he had 140 instead of 14, he would have been correct.
I haven't done division like that in a long time, so this is what I think it will look like. I didn't add other work (multiplying 4 with #'s) but you can if you have to
The figure is of the parallelogram so it’s formula will be base x height. From the figure we can see that vase is = 11.5yd and the height is 22.5yd,so it’s area will he bxh/11.5yd x 22.5yd which will be 258.75yd square
