Consider the line y = 5/2x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Perpendicular: -2/5

Parallel: 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept formula is y=mx+b, where mx is the slope.

So in the equation y = 5/2x, 5/2 is understood as the slope.

To find a perpendicular slope you have to do the opposite (sign), reciprocal (flip denominator and numerator) of the original number.

Therefore 5/2 become negative, and then the numerator and denominator switch sides. (-2/5)

Parallel slope is the exact same as the original one so nothing changes. (5/2)

Suppose you know that ∠S and ∠Y are complementary, and that m∠S = 2(m∠Y) − 60°. Find m∠Y.
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

m∠Y=50°

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that ∠S+∠Y=90 and that m∠S=2(m∠Y)-60.

If you plug those things into the equation, you get (2[m∠Y]-60)+m∠Y=90.

Then you multiply 2 and m∠Y: 2m∠Y-60+m∠Y=90.

Combine like terms: 3m∠Y-60=90.

Then you add 60 to both sides: 3m∠Y=150

Divide 3 on both sides: 3∠Y=50

If y varies inversely as x, and y= 4 when x=6, then determine the value of y when x=5.
EastWind [94]

Answer:

y = 4.8

Step-by-step explanation:

y = k/x

4 = k/6

k = 24

y = 24/5

y = 4.8

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The average number of daily miles traveled by these individuals was 11.72 miles per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in 2004, Pen Hadow and Simon Murray walked 680 miles to the South Pole, and the trip took 58 days, to determine the average number of miles traveled per day by these individuals the following mathematical calculation must be performed:

680/58 = X

11.72 = X

Thus, the average number of daily miles traveled by these individuals was 11.72 miles per day.
