Answer: 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

concept to know: the slope of perpendicular line is always opposite reciprocal

----------------------

Step 1. Find the slope of line t

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(4-9)/(10-7)

=-5/3

-------------------

Step 2. Apply the concept

Opposite reciprocal of (-5/3)=3/5

Hope this helps!! :)

Fill in the gaps in the arithmetic sequence -3, _ ,_ , _, _, _ 12

lord [1]

Answer:

-0.5, 2, 4.5, 7, 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The given terms are 6 apart, so the common difference is 1/6 of their difference:

d = (12 -(-3))/6 = 15/6 = 5/2 = 2.5

Add 2.5 to each term to get the next one. Then the sequence is ...

-3, -0.5, 2.0, 4.5, 7.0, 9.5, 12

How do I solve this algebra problem: 2(4a-12)+3a=6a+1

umka21 [38]

$2(4a-12)+3a=6a+1 \\\\ 8a-24+3a=6a+1 \\\\ 11a-24=6a+1 \\\\ 11a-6a=1+24 \\\\ 5a=25 \\\\ \boxed{a=\frac{25}{5}=5}$

A car is moving at 45mph. Once the care starts to break, its speed(s) is related to the number of seconds(t) it spends breaking

lana [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

When the car stops, the speed is zero.

When S = 0, -10t + 45 = 0, t = 4.5.

Hence it will take 4.5 seconds for the car to stop.
