Answer:

Part 1) The slopes are negative reciprocals of one another.

Part 2) There is no relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

we know that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

$m_1*m_2=-1$

Part 2)

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

Two linear functions that are perpendicular, could have the same y-intercept (the y-intercept would be the point of intersection between both lines)

There is no relationship

"A parabola is curved instead of linear, in your case it is probably just facing up or down so I won't get into square roots for now.So the quadratic equation that you probably have had to memorize (or will soon) is:
x=(-b[+or-]√(b²-4ac))/2a when you have an equation like ax²+bx+c=0Now where does the curve shape come from? You see that little pesky plus or minus in the equation? That's because there are always 2 values (inputs) that will generate the same output. Example:y=x²(2)²=4(-2)²=...4So if you were to follow this pattern, and plot the points on a graph, you would end up with a curve. You end up with a curve because the slope is constantly increasing.
And this is actually where you start the study of Calculus(!), which is all about measuring slopes (And a bunch of other stuff, but this is the easiest part to explain). Actually, in this case of y=x², the slope at any given point (funnily enough) is equal to 2 times your x-value.
The point is, your line is curved because unlike a linear equation, the slope is changing (at a constant rate)."

Answer:

D year 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

y= 8x^2-40x+6

year is the best prediction for when 1206

Finding value of x for y=1206

8x^2-40x+6= 1206
