What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x-y=-6

Mathematics
1 answer:
Solnce55 [7]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

m⊥ = –½

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the given equation in slope-intercept form:

2x – y = –6

–y = –2x – 6

y = 2x + 6

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line given will be the negative reciprocal of the given line's slope, so:

If m = 2, then m⊥ = its negative reciprocal:

m · –1

2 · –1

–2  →  –½

So, the negative reciprocal of 2 is –½.

Arrange these lunch buyers from greatest to least assuming they buy lunch 5 days per week: Alice spends $3 per day, Betty spends
ValentinkaMS [17]

Alice spends $3 per day, so for in a week and upto 5 weeks, Alice spend =$3*5*5 = $75

Betty spends $ 25 every 2 weeks, so for 5 weeks , she spends= 25+25+12.5

= $62.5

Cindy spends $ 75 per month, and on an average there are less then 5 weeks in a month . SO for 5 week, it must be greater than $75 .

So the order is

Cindy>Alice>Betty

You make a salary of $400 a month plus a 10% commission. If your total sales were $2000, how much money in total would you make
kykrilka [37]

Given:

Salary = $400 a month

Rate of commission = 10%

Total sales = $2000

To find:

The total money you will make this month.

Solution:

We have,

Rate of commission = 10%

Total sales = $2000

Commission = 2000\times \dfrac{10}{100}

                    = 200

We know that,

Total money = Salary + Commission

                     = \$400+\$200

                     = \$600

Therefore, the total money you will make this month is $600.
