Answer:

x=2 is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2,6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a graph of line whose equation is y=-4 and passing point (-8,-4) and (8,-4).

We need to find the equation of line which is perpendicular to y=-4

As we know y=-4 is horizontal line on coordinate plane.

If a line perpendicular to y=-4 then it must be vertical line.

Equation of vertical line : x=h

Passing point of line (2,6)

x would be same for all points in vertical line.

Required equation of line: x=2

Thus, x=2 is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2,6).

If sin theta =3/7 and tan theta <0 what is the value of cos theta

Savatey [412]

Remember that

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}$

So if $\sin\theta>0$ and $\tan\theta$ , then we know $\cos\theta$ .

Then use the Pythagorean identity to solve for cosine:

$\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta=1\implies\cos\theta=-\sqrt{1-\sin^2\theta}=-\dfrac{2\sqrt{10}}7$

A container of coffee is 1/6 full. That container contains 2/3 of a pound of coffee write a division expression that represents

Marizza181 [45]

Let us assume total capacity of the container = x pounds.

Container contains 1/6th coffee of total x pounds, that is x/6 pounds.

We also given that 1/6th part is equal to 2/3 of a pound.

So, we could setup an equation now.

x/6 pounds equals 2/3 of a pound.

$\frac{x}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$

Dividing both sides by 1/6, we get

$\frac{x}{6}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{6}$ .

Therefore, x = $\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{6}$

Division expression that represents the capacity of the container = 2/3 ÷ 1/6.

Let f(x) = xe^-x+ ce^-x, where c is a positive constant. For what positive value of c does f have an absolute

Illusion [34]

Answer:

$c=6$

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute maximum of a continuous function $f(x)$ is where $f'(x)=0$ . Therefore, we must differentiate the function and then set $x=-5$ and $f'(x)=0$ to determine the value of $c$ :

$f(x)=xe^{-x}+ce^{-x}$

$f'(x)=-xe^{-x}+e^{-x}-ce^{-x}$

$0=-(-5)e^{-(-5)}+e^{-(-5)}-ce^{-(-5)}$

$0=5e^{5}+e^{5}-ce^{5}$

$0=e^5(5+1-c)$

$0=6-c$

$c=6$

Therefore, when $c=6$ , the absolute maximum of the function is $x=-5$ .
