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

The radius of Earth is about 3,980 miles. What expression can be used to find the approximate diameter of Earth?
Tatiana [17]
To find the diameter, you use the formula: 2x. we use 2x because the radius is 2 times the diameter.

so, if the radius is 3,980, then we substitute that into the formula.

2(3,980)

this will give us 7960. the diameter is 7960 miles.

Which simplified fraction is equal to 0.53 with bar?
Oxana [17]

I assume that 0.53 with a bar means the decimal fraction in which 3 is repeating.

24/45, 8/15, and 48/90 all result in the same decimal value. Thus, we are simply looking for the one that is fully simplified.

The correct answer is 8/15.

Hope this helps!
