What is the slope of any line perpendicular to y=-1/3x+22

1 answer:

5 0

Answer:
The slope of any line perpendicular to the given line is 3

Explanation:
The general form of the linear line is:
y = mx + c where m is the slope
The given line is:
y = -1/3 x + 22
Comparing the given line with the general form, we will find that:
slope of the given line (m1) is -1/3

Now, for any two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes should be equal to -1.
This means that:
m1 * m2 = -1
We have m1 = -1/3
Therefore:
-1/3 * m2 = -1
m2 = 3*1
m2 = 3

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Find to points of the line and find the equation of the line.

A ( 0, -4) B (2, 0)

slope = m = $\frac{0 + 4}{2 - 0}$

$m = \frac{4}{2}$

m = 2

Line equation

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

(y - 0) = 2(x - 2)

y = 2x - 4

Write the line as an inequality

y ≥ 2x - 4

b) Yes, (2,0) is a solution of the inequality

y ≥ 2x - 4

0 ≥ 2(2) -4

0 ≥ 4 - 4

0 ≥ 0 This is true

c) No, (4, -2) is not a solution.

y ≥ 2x - 4

-2 ≥ 2(4) - 4

-2 ≥ 8 - 4

-2 ≥ 4 This is false

consider a quadrilateral with vertices d(0,0), i(5,5) n(8,4) g(7,1). determine the most accurate type of quadrilateral from the

Burka [1]

Answer:

Plotting the points into the coordinate plane gives us an observation that this quadrilateral with vertices d(0,0), i(5,5) n(8,4) g(7,1) is a KITE, as shown in figure a.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the quadrilateral with vertices

d(0,0)

i(5,5)

n(8,4)

g(7,1)

Plotting the points into the coordinate plane gives us an observation that this quadrilateral with vertices d(0,0), i(5,5) n(8,4) g(7,1) is a KITE, as shown in figure a.

From the figure a, it is clear that the quadrilateral has

Two pairs of sides
Each pair having two equal-length sides which are adjacent
The angles being equal where the two pairs meet
Diagonals as shown in dashed lines cross at right angles, and one of the diagonals does bisect the other - cuts equally in half

Please check the attached figure a.

Sophia asked the students in her class to name their favorite sports. She made a list to display the results. 1/3 of students na

Oksana_A [137]

Let's add up all of the other sports except baseball (which we don't know)
1/3 + 1/8 + 5/12 Common denominator is 24 so let change them to 24ths

8/24 + 3/24 + 10/24 = 21/24 Since all the sport put together can be represented by the number 1, we will do 1 - 21/24
Instead of 1, I will use 24/24 (which means 1)

24/24 - 21/24 = 3/24 or 1/8 reduced. 1/8 of the student named baseball as their favorite sport.
