Y = -2x - 5.....slope here is -2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we will need is : 1/2. See how I flipped the slope of -2/1 and changed it to -1/2.....now I change the sign making our new slope be 1/2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/2
(-1,-2).....x = -1 and y = -2
now sub and find b, the y int
-2 = 1/2(-1) + b
-2 = -1/2 + b
-2 + 1/2 = b
-4/2 + 1/2 = b
-3/2 = b

so ur perpendicular line is : y = 1/2x - 3/2

Suppose a water tank in the shape of a right circular cylinder is thirty feet high and eight feet in diameter. a) How much sheet
Zanzabum

Answer:

755.98 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the Cylinder= 30 feet

Diameter = 8 feet

Radius= Diameter/2 = 8/2 = 4 feet

The Amount of Metal Sheet used in constructing the tank is the Total  Surface Area of the Tank.

Total Surface Area of a Cylinder =

=2\pi r(r+h)\\=2*\pi*4(4+30)\\=8*\pi*30=\\=240\pi\\=755.98 ft^2

Just one problematic Answer
Arturiano [62]
All you have to do is divide 75 by .15. To start, you need to get rid of the decimal in .15, so move your decimal two spots to the right to turn .15 into 15. Then you have to move your decimal that is implied to be at the end of 75 over two spots because you moved the decimal in .15 which makes it 7,500. Now you have: 
7,500 ÷ 15 = 500     500 is your answer.
