Write an equation for a line perpendicular to y=4x-5 and passing through the point (-12,1)

Answer:

y = -1/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line has to be perpendicular, that means the new slope multiplied by the original should be -1. The original slope is 4, so the new one would be -1/4. Now our equation is y = -1/4x + z, z being the y intercept. We can find this by substituting the point in and finding the match. 1= -1/4(-12) + z. z has to equal -2, so the answer is y = -1/4x - 2

Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of open acres

y ----> the number of developed acres

we know that

$x+y \geq 4$ -----> inequality A

The solution of the inequality A is the shaded area above the solid line $x+y=4$

$y-x\leq 1$ -----> inequality B

The solution of the inequality B is the shaded area below the solid line $y-x=1$

so

there are 10 crates of eggs stacked in the corner. each crate of eggs holds 20 eggs. If there is only 1 broken egg in the entire

alisha [4.7K]

Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation: If there is one broken egg in each crate (1/20), you would change that to5%

And if there are ten crates, then you see how many eggs there a re total.

(10 × 20 = 200)

If there are 200 eggs and for every 20 eggs there is on broken one, then there will be 10 broken eggs total. or 10/200

convert the fraction to a decimal ( 10 ÷ 200 = .05)

then convert the decimal to a percent. .05 is equal to 5%
