What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to this line and goes through the

Mathematics

-Dominant- [34]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x + 3y + 9 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y=3x + 2

Coefficient of x = 3

Gradient (m) of line y= 3x + 2 is 3

Since the line passing through point

(3,-4) is perpendicular to line y=3x + 2

hence gradient (m) of the line is -1/3;

And hence it equation is given as;

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-4) = -1/3(x - 3)

multiplying through by 3;

3 × y + 3 × 4 = 3 × -1/3(x - 3)

3y + 12 = -1(x - 3)

3y + 12 = -x + 3

x + 3y + 12 - 3 = 0

x + 3y + 9 = 0

Ratio of the number of students in art class to the number of students in gym class was 2:7, however art class is small, and gym
xenn [34]
Semester 1:

let the number of students in the art class be 2a, and the number of the students in the gym class be 7a. (check: the ratio is 2a:7a = 2:7)

so the total number of students is 9a.


semester 2:

the 9a students are go to the art class and gym class at a a ratio of 5: 4, 

so 5a students go to the art class, and 4a students go to the gym class.



<span>75 students are in art class in second semester means that 5a=75, 

so a=75/5=15.


In the 1st semester the number of students was: 

art class: 2a=2*15=30

gym class: 7a=7*15=105

The vertex of the graph of f(x) = |x - 3| +6 is located at<br> Done<br> Intro
Igoryamba

Answer:

The vertex of the graph is located at the point (3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know where the vertex of the equation if plotted will be

To get this, what we have to do is to equate the expression that we have in the absolute value to zero

After this, we then proceed to solve for the value of x

We have this as;

x -3 = 0

hence;

x = 0 + 3

x = 3

to get the y-value of the vertex, we look at the value at the side of the absolute value

This value is 6 and thus, the y-value of the vertex point is 6

So the coordinates of the vertex is (3,6)

In a lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 22. If the player matches all six numbers, they win 20,000 dollars. Othe
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Total possible number of outcomes = C(24,6) [24 choose 6]

=24!/(6!18!)

= 134596

Out of which there is only one winning combination.

Therefore we conclude:

P(win 20000)=1/134596

P(lose 1)=134595/134596

and hence the expected value is:

20000*(1/134596)+(-1)*(134595/134596)

=-114595/134596

=-0.8514 (rounded to four places after decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped!

Two architects bid for a small government project, both
blondinia [14]

Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the total number of hours

Amazing design total charge = 45x+250

super structures total charge = 60x+100

both companies charge the same amount when both equation equals

45x+250=60x+100

60x-45x=250-100

15x=150

x=10

therefore at 10 hours both companies will charge the same amount
