Check the picture below.
recall that negative angles go "clockwise".
The slope of the parallel line is -6/7
the slope of the perpendicular line is 7/6
the slope of the line = -6/7
the gradient of two parallel lines are equal
the product of the gradient of two perpendicular lines is -1
: the gradient m1*m2 = -1
m2= -1(-6/7)
m2= 7/6
Answer:
C. 16x+9=4x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A person stand 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 m/s.
From Pythagorean Theorem,
(The distance between car and person)²= (The distance of the car from intersection)²+ (The distance of the person from intersection)²+
Assume that the distance of the car from the intersection and from the person be x and y at any time t respectively.
∴y²= x²+10²

Differentiating with respect to t


Since the car driving towards the intersection at 13 m/s.
so,

Now



= -12 m/s
Negative sign denotes the distance between the car and the person decrease.
Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.
