In the order of operation, multiplying or dividing don't take preference over the other. So with them, you work from left to right.

This means for this question, you first divide, then multiply.

Write the equation of the line perpendicular to 2x+3y=9 that passes through (-2,5). Write your answer in slope-intercept form. S

Harman [31]

ANSWER

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 8$

EXPLANATION

The line given to us has equation,

$2x + 3y = 9$

We need to write this equation in the slope intercept form to obtain,

$3y = - 2x + 9$

$\Rightarrow \: y = - \frac{2}{3}x + 3$

The slope of this line is

$m_1 = - \frac{2}{3}$
Let the slope of the perpendicular line be

$m_2$

Then
$m_1 \times m_2 = - 1$

$- \frac{2}{3} m_2= - 1$

This implies that,

$m_2 = - 1 \times - \frac{3}{2}$

$m_2 = \frac{3}{2}$

Let the equation of the perpendicular line be,

$y = mx + b$

We substitute the slope to get,

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + b$

Since this line passes through
$(-2,5)$
it must satisfy its equation.

This means that,

$5= \frac{3}{2} ( - 2)+ b$

$5 = - 3 + b$

$5 + 3 = b$

$b = 8$

Wherefore the slope-intercept form is

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 8$

Self storage center is a storage room that is 8 feet long 6 feet wide and 10 feet high what is the volume of the room

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

480 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given length of self storage = 8 feet

width of self storage = 6 feet

height of self storage = 10 feet.

Volume of rectangular object is calculated by formula

volume = length * width * height

substituting the value of length , width and height of self storage room in above formula we have

volume of self storage room = 8 * 6* 10 cubic feet= 480 cubic feet
