The general form of a linear equation is
y = mx + b
where m = slope and b = y-intercept
Here m = 2/7
To get to its perpendicular equation, first the slope should be negative reciprocal. So the perpendicular slope is m = -7/2
Given the point (-2,3), use the point-slope form equation, that is
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Plug in
y - 3 = (-7/2)[x - (-2)]
y - 3 = (-7/2)x - 7
y = (-7/2)x - 7 + 3
y = (-7/2)x - 4
That is the equation required.
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation you have to solve is 1.50 + (0.75 • 6). First, you solve what is in the parenthesis, 0.75 • 6 = 4.50. Now you simply add 1.50 and 4.50 to get $6, the total cost for 7 hours worth of parking.
25 feet above sea level means she travelled 25 feet to the surface of the sea. She would have to descend (37-25=12) 12 more feet to achieve 37 total feet of travel, so she descended 12 feet below sea level.
