Answer: y = 2 x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 ) to find the line perpendicular to

y = − 1 /2 x + 7 .

y = 2 x + 3

$1+\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2},1-\dfrac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is $4x^{2}-8x-1$

Let $a$ be the coefficient of $x^{2}$

Let $b$ be the coefficient of $x$

Let $c$ be the constant.

Then the roots α,β for the equation $ax^{2}+bx+c$ are $\dfrac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a},\dfrac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}$

So,α= $\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{8+\sqrt{64+16} }{8}=\frac{8+4\sqrt{5}}{8}=1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

β= $\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac} }{2a}=\frac{8-\sqrt{64+16} }{8}=\frac{8-4\sqrt{5}}{8}=1-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$ .

So the roots are $1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2},1+\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$

The population is a Midwest industrial town decreased from 224,000 to 221,000 in just 4 years. Assuming that this trend continue

valina [46]

Answer:

227750

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the rate of increase in population is linear, then in 4 years the increase in population is (224000 - 221000) = 3000.

So, the rate of increase in population is $\frac{3000}{4} = 750$ persons per year.

Now, we have to calculate the population of the town after an additional 5 years.

So, the population in 5 years will increase by (750 × 5) = 3750

Therefore, the population after an additional 5 years will be (224000 + 3750) = 227750. (Answer)
