Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = two over three x and contains the point (four,-eight)

When it is perpendicular, the slope is the negative reciprocal so it would equal -3/2x. Plug in the points to the equation so you can find the intercept. -8=-3/2(4)+b
Combine: -8=-6+b
Add 6: -2=b
The equation would be f(x)=-3/2x-2
Hope this helped and sorry if I am wrong!

Jake is buying a piece of recycled art from Luna. He started by giving her $50 and promised to pay her $5 a week until he pays t

garri49 [273]

Answer: $t = 50 + 5 w$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here w shows the number of weeks and t shows the total amount in w weeks.

Since, the initial amount he paid to her = $ 50

After that he paid $ 5 per week.

Thus, the total extra amount he paid = 5 w

⇒ The total amount he paid to her = 50 + 5 w

⇒ t = 50 + 5 w

Which is the required relation between the total amount paid(t) and the number of weeks (w) Jake will take to pay Luna.

The table shows a company’s profit based on the number of pounds of food produced.

Bingel [31]

Answer:

$5,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulae used,

$a=\dfrac{(\sum x^2y\sum xx)-(\sum xy\sum xx^2)}{(\sum xx\sum x^2x^2)-({\sum xx^2)}^2}$

$b=\dfrac{(\sum xy\sum x^2x^2)-(\sum x^2y\sum xx^2)}{(\sum xx\sum x^2x^2)-({\sum xx^2)}^2}$

$c=\dfrac{\sum y}{n}-b\frac{\sum x}{n}-a\frac{\sum x^2}{n}$

Where,

$\sum xx=\sum x^2-\dfrac{(\sum x)^2}{n}$

$\sum xy=\sum xy-\dfrac{\sum x\sum y}{n}$

$\sum xx^2=\sum x^3-\dfrac{\sum x\sum x^2}{n}$

$\sum x^2y=\sum x^2y-\dfrac{\sum x^2\sum y}{n}$

$\sum x^2x^2=\sum x^4-\dfrac{(\sum x^2)^2}{n}$

Putting the values from the table, we get the best fit line as,

$y= -0.0817x^2 + 102.24x - 20421$

As we want to calculate the profit at 350 pounds, so putting x=350, we get

$y= -0.0817(350)^2 + 102.24(350) - 20421=\$5354.75$
