Answer:

y=0.5x+40

Step-by-step explanation:

Copy the equation.

x-2y=8

Subtract x from both sides.

-2y=-x-8

Divide both sides by -2.

y=0.5x+4

Now we know the slope is 0.5.

Any line with a slope of 0.5 will be perpendiculr to the original line.

One that you can use is y=0.5x+40.

A child walks due east on the deck of a ship at 3 miles perhour.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

16.28 mph ; 79.38°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Speed of child due east = 3mph

Speed of ship due North = 16mph

Relative speed of th child is obtained by using Pythagoras rule to find the hypotenus

Relative Speed = Sqrt(3² + 16²)

Relative Speed = sqrt(9 + 256)

= sqrt(265)

= 16.2788 mph

= 16.28 mph

From trigonometry ;

Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent

Tanθ = (16 / 3)

Tanθ = 5.333

θ = tan^-1(5.333)

θ = 79.379°

θ = 79.38°
