What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the graphed line?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lemur [1.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the graphed line, you take two points. I have chosen (0, 4) and (8, 0)

The formula of a slope is (y value of second point -y value of first point) divided by (x value of second point -x value of first point):

\frac{0-4}{8-0} =-\frac{1}{2}

------------------------------------------------------------------------

The slope for a perpendicular line is 2.

Look at the image below.<br> 7<br> 5<br> 4<br> What is the area of the triangle?
Likurg_2 [28]

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a triangle is always

baseline × height / 2

where baseline and height are perpendicular (with a 90° angle) to each other.

it does not matter, if the height is inside or outside of the triangle.

so, in our case the area is

4×5/2 = 2×5 = 10 units²

How do you find the slope of a line given any 2 points on the line
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

rise over run

Step-by-step explanation:

you look at the distance between the 2 points by looking at how many points its goes up or down, and you look at how points it goes from the left to the right or vice versa. but if you don't have a graph to look at, you will want to use the slope formula. look up the slope formula and plug it in.

A homeowner has two smoke detector alarms installed, one in the dining room (adjacent to the kitchen) and one in an upstairs bed
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

0.97

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a homeowner has two smoke detector alarms installed, one in the dining room (adjacent to the kitchen) and one in an upstairs bedroom (above the kitchen). If cooking produces smoke in the kitchen, the probability of setting off the dining room alarm (D) is .95. The probability of setting off the bedroom alarm (B) is .40.

Both alarms are independent of each other.

Probability for smoke detection=P(any one alarm rings)

=P(Kitchen alarm sets off)+P(bed room alarm sets off)-P(Both sets off)

Since both are independent

P(Both) = 0.95*0.40\\=0.38

Probability for smoke detection

= 0.95+0.40-0.38

=0.97

Doughnuts at one shop cost £1.20 each.
charle [14.2K]

Answer: 30p

Cost of donuts in the first shop £1.20

Cost at the second shop at 25% higher

= 1.20 x 1.25 = 1.50

Difference in price
