Find the equation of The line perpendicular to Y= -2+3/5X passing through the points (3, -4)

Answer:

y = -1\frac{2}{3} + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The line (a) passing through point (3, -4) is perpendicular to line (b) whose equation is; y = -2 + \frac{3}{5}x

The slope of line (b) = \frac{3}{5}

For perpendicular lines, the product of their slopes = -1

So line (a) has a slope of: -1 ÷ \frac{3}{5} = -\frac{5}{3}

Taking another point (x,y) on line (a);

Slope = change in y ÷ change in x

\frac{y - -4}{x - 3} = -\frac{5}{3}

y + 4 = \frac{5}{3}(x - 3)

y = -\frac{5}{3}x + 5 - 4

y = -\frac{5}{3}x + 1

Finally,

y = -1\frac{2}{3} + 1

riadik2000 [5.3K]
Slope is rise/run, or y/x. So y from zero to 4 is 4, and x from -2 to zero is 2. and 4/2=2, so the slope is 2

Which expression is a quadratic binomial? 3 x 4 −2x x 2 −9x 2 x 4 +9 x 2 −6x−1 7x²
svetlana [45]
To solve the problem shown above it is important to know that a binomial is a polynomial that has two terms. When the highest exponent of the binomial is 2, it is a binomial with degree 2, this is also called or know as "quadratic binomial". Therefore, keeping this on mind, you must identify which of the polynomial above has degree 2.

 As you can see, the answer is: <span>−6x−1 7x²</span>

If cosX = -0.2, and x is in quadrant II, then what it the value of sinX​
Tems11 [23]

\sin x>0 when x is in quadrant II, so

\cos^2x+\sin^2x=1\implies\sin x=\sqrt{1-\cos^2x}=\sqrt{1-(-0.2)^2}\approx1.02
