The perpendicular equation is y = -3/2x - 4.

You can find this by first realizing that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. So since it starts at 2/3 we flip it and make it a negative and the new slope is -3/2. Now we can use that and the point to get the y intercept using slope intercept form.

y = mx + b

5 = (-3/2)(-6) + b

5 = 9 + b

-4 = b

And now we can use our new slope and new intercept to model the equation.

y = -3/2x - 4

Hay dear friend thank you for asking the question

according to the question we know that

y = mx +b

And given that y = 5 , m = -3/2, x = -6

so

5 = -3/2×(-6) +b

5 = 9 + b

-4 = b

now we can use our new slope and new intercept model equation then,

y = (-3/2)x-4

I hope it's help you

Please explain how you got the answer, i dont understand the subject
KIM [24]

Answer:

y=mx+c

We have to find the value of m and c.

Let's substitute the value of x and y from the table.

When x=1, y=15,

15= m(1)+c

m +c= 15 ------(1)

Now substitute another set of x and y values.

When x=2, y=24,

24= m(2)+c

2m +c= 24

c= 24 -2m ------(2)

Let me rewrite the two equations so that it is clearer for you to see.

m + c= 15 -----(1)

c = 24 -2m -----(2)

subst. (2) into (1):

m+ 24-2m= 15

-m= 15-24 (bring constants to 1 side, m terms to the other)

-m= -9 (simplify)

m= 9 ( divide by -1 throughout)

subst. m=9 into (2):

c= 24 -2(9)

c= 24-18

c= 6

Thus, the equation is y=9x+6.

When the cat is 3 years old, x=3.

When x=3,

y= 9(3)+6

y= 33.

Hence, the cat is 33 years old in human years.

How are you can’t do that I want no which answer
Sav [38]

The area of the square is 14*14 = 168 ft^2.

The area of the circle is πr^2. The radius is diameter/2 = 7. The area of the circle is 3.14*(7)^2 = 3.14*49 = 153.86 ft^2.

The area of the shaded part is the area of the square minus the area of the circle = 168 - 153.86 = 14.14 ft^2.
