Answer:

y = -1/3x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines: Their gradients are reciprocals.

This means:

-1 ÷ Gradient 1 = Gradient 2
Gradient 1 * Gradient 2 = -1

Gradient of the given equation is 3.

-1 / 3 = -1/3

Gradient of the equation we're finding is -1/3

y = -1/3x + c

Substitute the coordinates in to find the value of c

2 = -1/3(6) + c

2 = -2 + c

2 + 2 = c

4 = c

y = -1/3x + 4

Hal says the volume of the sphere shown below 36 cm3. Find the correct volume, using 3.14 for pi. Round to the nearest hundredth

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Volume of sphere is $35.98cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Hal says that volume of sphere is $36cm^3$

Volume of sphere is given by $V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=36$

$\pi r^3=27$

$r^3=8.594$

$r=2.048cm$

Now using 3.14 in place of $\pi$

Now volume of sphere is

$V=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14\times 2.048^3$

$V=35.98cm^3$

Therefore volume of sphere when we use 3.14 in place of $\pi$ is $35.98cm^3$

And the Hal likely error is he uses $\pi$ directly for calculation of volume.

D(n)= 16 5 (2) n−1

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you want to find the 3rd term of the geometric progression defined explicitly by $d(n)=165(2^{n-1})$ , then we have to substitute n=3 to obtain:

$d(3)=165(2^{3-1})$

This will give us:

$d(3)=165(2^2)$

We evaluate to obtain:

$d(3)=165\times4=660$
