Answer:

The original Slope is y=-1/3x-2

The perpendicular slope would be y=3x+b

Step-by-step explanation:

Original Slope:

You already have the y-interecpet, (0,-2), and you know two points (0,-2) and (-6,0), so you can find the slope with (y1-y2)/(x1-x2) so in this case, it would be (0-(-2))/(-6-0)= -1/3 and you can find y=1/3x-2.

Perpendicular Slope:

The slope of any perpendicular line would be the reciprocal of the original. So the reciprocal of -1/3 is 3. The b can be any real number because no matter the y-intercept the slope would still be perpendicular

A ball is thrown in the air from a height of 3 m with an initial velocity of 12 m/s. To the nearest tenth of a second, how long

stepladder [879]

Answer: 1.4 seconds

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The equation is: h(t) = at² + v₀t + h₀ where

a is the acceleration (in this case it is gravity)
v₀ is the initial velocity
h₀ is the initial height

Given:

a = -9.81 (if it wasn't given in your textbook, you can look it up)
v₀ = 12
h₀ = 3

Since we are trying to find out when it lands on the ground, h(t) = 0

EQUATION: 0 = 9.81t² + 12t + 3

Use the quadratic equation to find the x-intercepts

a=-9.81, b=12, c=3

$x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-(12)\pm \sqrt{(12)^2-4(-9.81)(3)}}{2(-9.81)}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-12\pm 16.2}{-19.62}\\\\\\x=\dfrac{-12+ 16.2}{-19.62}=-0.2\qquad x=\dfrac{-12- 16.2}{-19.62}=\large\boxed{1.4}\\$

Note: Negative time (-0.2) is not valid
