Find the slope of the line perpendicular

Mathematics

siniylev [52]3 years ago

Ok since your given two points of (-5,2) and origin which is always (0,0) you can find the slope with this formula of y2-y1/x2-x1 plug them in the formula and you should get 0-2/0-5 which is equal to -2/-5 or 2/5 negative signs cancel out now you found your slope but remember the promblem was asking for perpendicular slope to get this you simply flip or reciprocate the slope and take take the opposite sign in our case the slope is 2/5 but the perpendicular version is -5/2 hope this helps.

Ken really like his lattes, but they are costing him a fortune. He spends $5.76 each work day for a large latte. Ken works 5 day
Naddik [55]

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume we are ignoring holidays, vacation days, sick days,...

then we have 52 weeks in a year with 5 works days each.

so, 52×5 work days in a year = 260 work days per year.

every work day he saves 5.76 - 3.75 = $2.01

so, he saves over the course of a year

260×2.01 = $522.60

Use the method of Gauss to find the sum.1+2+3+.....+400
nikklg [1K]
Gauss' method for addition relies on the fact that you can 'pair' certain numbers together. Look at the example:

1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10

We could manually add all these together from left to right but a clever way to think about this is if we add together the ends of the sum (10+1) we get 11. If we then move one in from the ends and add these (2+9) we also get 11. This means that 1+2+...+9+10 is the same as 11+11+...+11+11.

Because each 2 numbers adds to 11 we know the total number of 11's we have to add together is the length of the sum divided by 2. In our case 5 (10 ÷ 2). We need to add 5 lots of 11 to get our answer. This is the same as 11 × 5 which is easily seen to be 55.

(If you add the 10 numbers together on a calculator you'll see 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 = 55) so this method really makes it a lot quicker.

Looking at your sequence, if we pair the ends together we get 401 (400+1) and we multiply this by the length of the sequence divided by 2. In your case, 200 (400 ÷ 2).

So the sum of all the numbers from 1 to 400 must be 401 × 200 = 80,200.

Remember the steps:
1. Pair the ends together and add them
2. Times this number by the length of the sequence halved

Hope this helps.
