Answer:
c) 6x + y = -52 is required equation perpendicular to the given equation.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the equation is of the form : y = mx + C.
Here m = slope of the equation.
Two equations are said to be perpendicular if the product of their respective slopes is -1.
Here, equation 1 : -x + 6y = -12
or, 6y = -12 + x
or, y = (x/6) - 2
⇒Slope of line 1 = (1/6)
Now, for equation 2 to be perpendicular:
Check for each equation:
a. x + 6y = -67 ⇒ 6y = -67 - x
or, y = (-x/6) - (67/6) ⇒Slope of line 2 = (-1/6)
but
b. x - 6y = -52 ⇒ -6y = -52 - x
or, y = (x/6) + (52/6) ⇒Slope of line 2 = (1/6)
but
c. 6x + y = -52
or, y =y = -52 - 6x ⇒Slope of line 2 = (-6)
Hence, 6x + y = -52 is required equation 2.
d. 6x - y = 52 ⇒ -y = 52 - 6x
or, y = 6x - 52 ⇒Slope of line 2 = (6)
but
Hence, 6x + y = -52 is the only required equation .
Answer: 120 ways
Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're asked how many ways can 5 people be arranged in a line.
Let's start by drawing 5 blanks to represent the 5 different positions in the line.
Now, we know that 5 different people can fill the spot in the first position. However, once the first position is filled, only 4 people can fill the second spot and once the second spot is filled, only 3 people can fill the third spot and so on. So we have <u>5</u> <u>4</u> <u>3</u> <u>2</u> <u>1</u>.
Now, based on the counting principle, there are 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 ways for all 5 spots to be filled.
5 x 4 is 20, 20 x 3 is 60, 60 x 2 is 120, and 120 x 1 is 120.
So there are 120 ways for all 5 spots to be filled which means that there are 120 ways that 5 people can be arranged in a line.
