Answer:
The slope is -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>A line that is perpendicular to another has the slope that has the sign reversed and is the reciprocal.
</u>
Example: Find the line perpendicular to y = 3x
First, you flip the sign which makes 3 into -3
Next, you make the reciprocal which makes -3 into <u>-1/3
</u>
Problem: Find the line perpendicular to y = (2/3)x + 7
First, you flip the sign which makes 2/3 into -2/3
Next, you make the reciprocal which makes -2/3 into <u>-3/2</u>
Answer: The slope is -3/2
This is the concept of algebra: The answers to the questions will be as follows:
1. What is AD/AM in the simplest form:
AD/AB is the ratio of AD to AB. This will calculated as follows:
AD=9 units
AB=3 units
thus:
9/3=3
Hence, we conclude that the answer is D. 3
2] What is slope of BE/ slope of AE in simplest form:
slope=(Δy-axis)/(Δx-axis)
slope of AE
=(5-0)/(4-0)
=5/4
slope BE
slope=(5-0)/(4-3)=5/1=5
therefore the ratio of the two slope will be:
BE/AE
=5/(5/4)
=4
The answer is A.4
3. What is the value of x in the proportion (x-1)/5=(4x+2)/35?
To get the value of x we solve the above proportion:
(x-1)/5=(4x+2)/35
35(x-1)=5(4x+2)
35x-35=20x+10
putting like terms together we get:
35x-20x=10+35
15x=45
dividing both sides by 15
x=45/15
x=3
Hence the answer is B.3
4. What is the value of x in the proportion:
(x+1)/(x+3)=15/21
to get the value of x we solve the above:
first we begin by cross multiplying the proportion, this will give us:
21(x+1)=15(x+3)
21x+21=15x+45
putting like terms together we get:
21x-15x=45-21
6x=24
dividing both sides by 6 we get
x=4
∴ x=4
5. The lengths of the sides of a triangle are in extended ratio 3:10:12. The perimeter is 400 cm. What is the length of the longest side in cm.
solution:
Here we introduce the variable x such that the perimeter is:
3x+10x+12x=400
25x=400
x=400/25
x=16
The longest side will be:
12×16=192 cm
Initial Deposit = $7000
It means P= $7000
rate of interest = 10%
So , r = 0.10
compounded quarterly , so n = 4
and we have to find the amount after 5 years , So t = 5
Now the formula we use here is
So amount after 5 years = $11470.315
Step-by-step explanation:
a vector multiplied by a scalar is equal to it's image. The expression above gives an equation and after solving, it gives you the image
