The gradient of the perpendicular line would be the negative reciprocal of the original line. Therefore the gradient of the perpendicular line would be -2/5x.
Since we know y=mx+c, ∴y=-2/5x+c. Sub in the x and y values of the given point and we get that c=26/5.

The perpendicular equation would be y=-2/5x+26/5.
I hope I got this right.

Comparing equation y-4 = 5/2(x+3) with slope-point form y-y1=m(x-x1), slope of given line is 5/2. Let m' be the slope of required line. product of the slope of perpendicular lines is equal to -1. Therefore, mxm' = -1. m' = -2/5. Using slope-point form to find the equation of required line, y-y1 = m(x-x1) . y-8 = -2/5(x-(-7)). y-8 = -2/5(x+7).

Tiffany used to live 15 kilometers away from the school, but after she moved she now lives 9.9 kilometers away. She is _____ per
valkas [14]

Answer:

Tiffany is 34% closer to the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement: Tiffany used to live 15 kilometers away from the school, but after she moved she now lives 9.9 kilometers away.

She lived away from the school = 15 km

as, she moved 9.9 km away.

Now, the distance closer to school from where she lived = 15 -9.9 = 5.1 km

To, find how much percent she is closer to school.

Percent states that a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100.

percent = \frac{5.1}{15} \times 100 = \frac{51 \times 100}{150} = \frac{51 \times 10}{15}

Simplify:

percent closer to school = 34%

Therefore, she is 34% closer to the school.

How to classify a polynomial by its degree​
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:Classifying Polynomials. Polynomials can be classified two different ways - by the number of terms and by their degree. A monomial has just one term. For example, 4x2 .Remember that a term contains both the variable(s) and its coefficient (the number in front of it.)

Answer:

M = \log(10000)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

M = \log(\frac{I}{I_o})

I = 10000I_o ---- intensity is 10000 times reference earthquake

Required

The resulting equation

We have:

M = \log(\frac{I}{I_o})

Substitute the right values

M = \log(\frac{10000I_o}{I_o})

M = \log(10000)
