Answer:

y = -5x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear equations, or lines, that are perpendicular to each other have opposite reciprocals for the value of slope.  For the given line, y = 1/5x - 2, the slope is 1/5 and the opposite reciprocal is -5.

Given the value of the slope and a given point on the second line, you can solve for 'b':

y = mx + b

8 = (-5)(-5) + b

8 = 25 + b

-17 = b

y = -5x - 17

100 POINTS !! The trajectory of a potato launched from a potato cannon on the ground at an angle of 45 degrees with an initial s
stellarik [79]

Answer:

height: 125m; distance: 500m

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 250

f(x) = x − 0.002x2

f(x) = 250 − 0.002(250 )2

= 250 − 0.002(62,500)

= 250 − 125

= 125

250 times 2 = 500

A dolphin jumps from the water at an initial velocity of 16 feet per second. The equation h + -16t^2 + 80t models the dolphin's
Dominik [7]

Answer:

100feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height reached by a dolphin expressed by the equation is h = -16t^2 + 80t. At maximum height, the velocity is zero, hence;

v(t) = dh/dt = -32t + 80

0 = -32t + 80

32t = 80

t = 80/32

t = 2.5secs

Substitute t = 2.5 into the height formula h = -16t^2 + 80t

h = -16(2.5)^2 + 80(2.5)

h = -100+200

h = 100feet

Hence  the maximum height the dolphin jumps is 100feet
