(2,-2)(4,10)
slope = (10 - (-2) / (4 - 2) = (10 + 2) / 2 = 12/2 = 6
The slope of the original equation is 6, but we are looking for a perpendicular line, so we need the negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. 6 or 6/1.....flip it...1/6...change the sign....-1/6. So we will need the slope of -1/6.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/6
(2,1)...x = 2 and y = 1
now we sub and find b, the y intercept
1 = -1/6(2) + b
1 = -1/3 + b
1 + 1/3 = b
3/3 + 1/3 = b
4/3 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -1/6x + 4/3

5 quarts to cups. <br> <br> How many meters is in 0.7 kilometers?<br> How did you do it.
Evgen [1.6K]
The answer is 700 meters

why?
1. km=1000.m so when you move the 1 to the right .1 you have to do the same woth 1000. which will be 100.0

the answer  is 20 

why?
1 quart=4 cup so change 1 to 5 which means *5 and the same with cups 4 to 20 which means *20

What period of the functions f(x) = cos 2x? Please help thank you.
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

option 3 ⇒ π

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of the given function is as following

f(x) = A cos (Bx)

Where A is the amplitude

and B = 2π/period

For the given function f(x) = cos 2x

B = 2

period = 2π/B = 2π/2 = π
