Answer:

y - 5 = -4(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Line coordinates: (5,5)

Perpendicular slope = \frac{1}{4}

Required

Find the point slope form of the line

First, the slope of the line has t be calculated;

Given that two lines are perpendicular;

The relationship between there slopes is given as m_1.m_2 = -1

Let m_2 represent the slope of the second line;

such that m_2 = \frac{1}{4}

So;

m_1 * \frac{1}{4}  = -1

Multiply both sides by 4

m_1 * \frac{1}{4} * 4  = -1 * 4

m_1  = -1 * 4

m_1  = -4

Now, the equation of the line can be calculated using slope formula;

m = \frac{y - y_1}{x- x_1}

Where

(x_1,y_1) = (5,5)\\m_1 =m = -4

So; m = \frac{y - y_1}{x- x_1} becomes

-4 = \frac{y - 5}{x- 5}

Multiply both sides by x - 5

-4(x-5) = \frac{y - 5}{x- 5} * (x-5)

-4(x-5) = y - 5

Reorder

y - 5 = -4(x-5)

Hence, the line in point-slope form is y - 5 = -4(x-5)

Olivia family drove to Disney land For spring break. Her mom and dad shared the driving duties for a total of 14 hours. her mom
Kay [80]

Mom drove for 11 hours.

Dad drove for 3 hours.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Total hours = 14 hours
  • Total distance = 895 miles
  • Mom drove a speed of 65 mph
  • Dad drove a speed of 60 mph

Let 'x' be the number of hours drove by mom.

Let 'y' be the number of hours drove by dad.

x + y = 14     ---------------(1)

65x + 60y = 895  ---------(2)

Multiply eq(1) by 60 and subtract eq(2) from (1),

60x + 60y = 840

-(<u>65x + 60y = 895</u>)

 <u> -5x   = -55    </u>

x = 55/5

x = 11

∴ Mom drove for 11 hours.

Substitute x=11 in eq(1)

11+y = 14

y = 3

∴ Dad drove for 3 hours.

Triangle ABC is transformed to create triangle MNL?​
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

The transformation is rigid because the corresponding side lengths and angles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have congruent triangles (not similar triangles), they will have to have the same length and angles throughout your transformation. Therefore, our answer is the 1st Option.

A compressed air tank carried by scuba divers has a volume of 8.00 L and a pressure of 141 atm at 22.0°C. What is the volume (in
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Volume of air in the tank =1,044 Liter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Tank volume = 8 Liter

Pressure = 141 atm

Temperature = 22°C = 273° + 20° = 295° K

Find:

Volume of air in the tank = ?

Computation:

\frac{Pressure\times Tank\ volume}{Tempreture} =\frac{Pressure\times Air\ volume}{Tempreture}\\\\\frac{141\times 8}{295} =\frac{1\times Air\ volume}{273.15}\\\\\frac{1,128}{295} =\frac{Air\ volume}{273.15}\\\\Air\ volume=1,044.45

Volume of air in the tank =1,044 Liter
