Consider line A whose equation is y = -10x + 8. If line B is perpendicular to line A and has a y-intercept at y = 3, what is the
1 answer:
Answer:
C) . y=(1/10)x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation of the line is y=-10x+8
It is in the form of y=mx+c where m is the slope of the line. Now on comparision we get m1=-10.
We knoew that two lines are perpendicular iff the product of their slopes is equal to -1.
the slope of the recquired line ==
The equation of a line is typically written as y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
Given the y intercept of the recquired line (b)=3
The recquired line is
y=mx+b
y=(1/10)x+3

well, first off, let's notice that we have a trapezoid with a rectangle inside it, so the rectangle is really "using up" area that the trapezoid already has.
now, if we just get the area of the trapezoid, and then the area of the rectangle alone, and then subtract that area of the rectangle, the rectangle will in effect be making a hole inside the trapezoid's area, and what's leftover, is the shaded section, that part the hole is not touching.
