7. Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (2, 3) and is perpendicular to the line y = 5/8x

- 4 y = 5/8x + 17/4 y = -5/8x + 7/4 y = -8/5x + 31/5 y = -8/5x - 31/5

Answer:

y = -8/5 x + 31/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (2, 3) and is perpendicular to the line y = 5/8x - 4 y = 5/8x + 17/4 y = -5/8x + 7/4 y = -8/5x + 31/5 y = -8/5x - 31/5

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.

Slope of given line: 5/8

Slope of perpendicular line: -8/5

Point on perpendicular line: (2, 3)

Slope-intercept form of the equation of a line:

y = mx + b

We know the slope of the perpendicular is -8/5, so now we have

y = -8/5 x + b

We need to find b.

We use the given point for x and y and solve for b.

y = -8/5 x + b

3 = -8/5 * 2 + b

15 = -8 * 2 + 5b

15 = -16 + 5b

5b = 31

b = 31/5

Now that we know that b = 5, we can write the equation of the perpendicular line:

y = -8/5 x + 31/5

Height
dem82 [27]

Answer:

<h3>1 secs</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the discus can be modeled by the equation y=−16x ^2 +32x+4, where y represents the  height in feet of the discus in seconds, the velocity of the discus at its maximum height is zero.

Velocity v = dy/dx = 0

dy/dx = -32x + 32

0 = -32x + 32

32x = 32

x = 1 secs

Hence it will take the discus 1 secs to reach its maximum height

Determine the median -2,-3,8,12,1,14
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

4.5 would be the median.

Putting these numbers into order from least to greatest, the middle number wouldn't be one number, but two. This means you have to add those two numbers together and divide it by two, giving you 4.5. Hope this helped, thanks for reading!
