Parallel:  the lines have = slopes.  We thus need 5/6 to equal 2/p.  then 5p must equal 12, and p = 12/5.   (answer)

Check:  Is 5/6 = 2 / (12/5)?  YES

Perp.:  The lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another.

Then -6/5 = 2/p,  or

 -6      2
---- = ----
  5      p             Thus, -6p = 10, and p = -5/3   (answer)

A) In order to be parallel, the slopes must be the same. To find p, set the slopes equal to each other:

5/6 = 2/p

Cross multiply:

12 = 5p

p = 12/5

B) In order to be perpendicular, the slopes must be opposite reciprocals. So if one line's slope is 5/6, the other line's slope must be -6/5:

-6/5 = 2/p

10 = -6p

p = 10/-6

Reduced, the answer is p = -5/3.

onji has $5.25 in nickels and dimes.The coin value can be modeled by the equation 0.10d + 0.05n = 5.25, where d represents the n
Maru [420]
This is how you solve this problem:
.10d + .05n = 5.25

(plug in the number of dimes we have)

(21 x .1) + .05n = 5.25

(multiply number of dimes x value of the dime)

2.10 + .05n = 5.25

(subtract 2.10 from both sides)

.05n = 3.15

(divide both sides by .05 to get the number of nickels)

n = 63 nickels

Hope this helps!

Find the solution to the initial value problem
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

y = (11x + 13)e^(-4x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given y'' + 8y' + 16 = 0

The auxiliary equation to the differential equation is:

m² + 8m + 16 = 0

Factorizing this, we have

(m + 4)² = 0

m = -4 twice

The complimentary solution is

y_c = (C1 + C2x)e^(-4x)

Using the initial conditions

y(-1) = 2

2 = (C1 -C2) e^4

C1 - C2 = 2e^(-4).................................(1)

y'(-1) = 3

y'_c = -4(C1 + C2x)e^(-4x) + C2e^(-4x)

3 = -4(C1 - C2)e^4 + C2e^4

-4C1 + 5C2 = 3e^(-4)..............................(2)

Solving (1) and (2) simultaneously, we have

From (1)

C1 = 2e^(-4) + C2

Using this in (2)

-4[2e^(-4) + C2] + 5C2 = 3e^(-4)

C2 = 11e^(-4)

C1 = 2e^(-4) + 11e^(-4)

= 13e^(-4)

The general solution is now

y = [13e^(-4) + 11xe^(-4)]e^(-4x)

= (11x + 13)e^(-4x-4)

Use quadratic regression to find
vovangra [49]

Answer:

y = 6x² -13x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

(1,-12) (2,-7) (5,80)

y = ax² + bx + c

-12 = a*1² + b*1 + c = a+b+c    (1)

-7 = 4a + 2b + c    (2)

80 = 25a + 5b + c   (3)

(2)-(1): 3a + b = 5    (4)

(3)-(2): 21a + 3b = 87   (5)

(4)*3:     9a + 3b = 15    (6)

(5)-(6):  12a = 72      a = 6

(4)                             b = -13

(2)                             c = -5
