Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 6 that goes through (2, 10).

1 answer:

7 0

If the line is perpendicular, then its slope is the reciprocal of the given line's slope. This new line's slope is 1/2. We plug it into slope-intercept form

y = 1/2x + b

Now plug in the given point of (2, 10) and solve for b.

10 = 1/2(2) + b
10 = 1 + b
9 = b

So your equation is y = 1/2x + 9

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

When the dimensions double, the perimeter doubles.

The percent change can be found from ...

percent change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%

Filling in your values, you have ...

percent change = ((2×(old perimeter))/(old perimeter) -1) × 100%

= (2 - 1) × 100%

= 100%

The perimeter increases by 100% from the first garden to the second.

a model helicopter burns 1 2/5 ounces of fuel per minute. at that rate, how much fuel is needed for a 7 1/2 minute flight

bixtya [17]

The model helicopter would burn 10.5 ounces of fuel in 7 1/2 minutes. You would first multiply 1.4 (1 2/5 ounces of fuel) by 7 minutes to get 9.8 ounces of fuel. Then, divide 1.4 by 2 to account for the thirty seconds of the flight ( thirty seconds is half of a minute, or 1/2) to get 0.7, add 0.7 by 9.8, and get 10.5 ounces of fuel in the process.
