Answer:

y=3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

If the new line is perpendicular to the original line, they the slope for the new line should be the reciprocal and opposite of the original line. Since the original line's slope is -1/3, the slope of the new line is 3, which is the coefficient in the new equation representing the new line. Then, you create an equation to solve for "b" in the equation y=mx+b where "b" is the y-intercept. You plug in 3 for x, 4 for y, and 3 for m (you know that 3 is x and 4 is y because it says that the line must past (3,4). So the equation to solve for b should be "4=3(3)+b". Then for b you should get -5.

write an equation in slop-intercept form for a line that is perpendicular to the line y= -5x-3 and has a y-intercept of 6.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 1/5x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the slope of a perpendicular line, you need to find the opposite and reciprocal of the original slope. Since the original is -5, we first change the sign (which makes it just 5). Now we take that 5 and flip it to get 1/5.

Now that we have the slope as 1/5, we can use that and the intercept in slope-intercept form to get the equation.

y = mx + b

y = 1/5x + 6

Phone chargers in a store are priced $19, $18, $15, $17, $19, $12, $19, and $15.

The display that would best show the measures of variation of the given prices is; B: Box and Whisker Plot

<h3>What is the importance of Box and Whisker Plot?</h3>

We are given the prices of Phone chargers in a store as;

$19, $18, $15, $17, $19, $12, $19, and $15.

Now, since we want to determine the display that would best show the measures of variation, the best display would be a box and whisker plot. This is because Box and Whisker plots are a great chart to use when showing the distribution of data points across a selected measure. These  box and whisker plots display ranges within variables measured.

Jordan lives 6 kilometers due south of his parents' house and 4 kilometers west of his grandparents' house. On his birthday, Jor
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The direction of movement of Jordan on his birthday forms a right angle triangle. His movement from his house to his parents due south represents the opposite side of the right angle triangle. His movement due west represents the adjacent side and the movement back home along the straight line, d represents the hypotenuse. To determine d, we would apply the Pythagorean theorem. Thus

d² = 6² + 4² = 52

d = √52 = 7.2 km

The total distance that he drove on his birthday is

6 + 4 + 7.2 = 17.2 km
