Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y= -2x+1 that also intersects the point (8, 2)

Mathematics

Kay [80]3 years ago

The slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of the original line, so m = -1/(-2) = 1/2.

The general line of slope m through (a,b) is

y - b = m(x-a)

So the line we seek is

y - 2 = \frac 1 2 ( x - 8)

y = \frac 1 2 x - 2

Answer: y = 1/2  x + -2

We define a bow-tie quadrilateral as a quadrilateral where two sides cross each other. An example of a bow-tie quadrilateral is
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

70/5985

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a quadrilateral needs to have four vertices (or points on the circle). There are always two ways to link the cross — horizontally or vertically. Using my limited knowledge of combinations, we know that choosing four points out of seven equals 35. Multiplying the two ways to connect those lines (again, horizontally and vertically) makes 35*2 = 70 "bow-tie quadrilaterals" that can be formed on the circle using four points. There are 5985 ways four chords can be chosen out of twenty-five chords because C(25,4) equals 5985, so the probability is 70/5985... and then we just need to simplify that fraction.

3m+n=10<br>5m-2n=2<br>what is the answer for this one ​
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

m = 2

n = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so to solve this, you want to get it so there is only one variable and then solve that equation. To do this, you can start by doing:

3m + n = 10

multiply both sides by 2

6m + 2n = 20

now, in both of your equations you have 2n so you can add the two equations:

6m + 2n = 20

+ 5m - 2n = 2

11m = 22

divide both sides by 11

m = 2.

Now, plug this value into the original equation, 3m + n = 10:

3 * 2 + n = 10

6 + n = 10

subtract 6 from both sides

n = 4

The ratio is supposed to be pennies to total amount of coins. The total amount of coins--including pennies--is 16. This can be proven by this equation:

5 + 6 + 5 = 16

Now you put the ratio together by taking the amount of pennies (5) and total amount of coins (16). Your ratio should look like this:
