Consider the line y = 5/2x.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Trava [24]2 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)

Answer:

  about 520,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Following directions, we evaluate the equation by putting the value where the variable is and doing the arithmetic.

__

The value of x will be the number of days between May 26 and May 12. That value is ...

  x = 26 -12 = 14

Then the number of mosquitos is estimated to be ...

  y = 230,000(1.06^14) ≈  520,008

About 520,000 mosquitos will inhabit the city on May 26.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Typically, an "estimate" is one or two significant figures. So, 520,000 is a reasonable estimate. 520,008 has more precsision than can be justified.

Determine whether the statement is true or false. If f and g are positive increasing functions on an interval I, then fg is incr
Leno4ka [110]

Answer: false

Step-by-step explanation:

If f and g are increasing on I, this implies that f' > 0 on I and g' > 0 on I. That is both f' and g' have a positive slope. However,

Using product rule;

(fg)' = fd(g) + gd(f)

(fg)' = f * g' + f' * g

and although it is given that g' and f' are both positive we don't have any information about the sign of the values of the functions themselves(f and g). Therefore, if at least one of the functions has negative values there is the possibility that the derivative of the product will be negative. For example;

f = x, g = 5x on I = (-5, -2)

f' = 1 and g' =5 both greater than 0

f and g are both lines with positive slopes therefore they are increasing, but f * g = 5x^2 is decreasing on I.

What is an equation of a line that passes through the points (8 , -3) (8 , 4)
elixir [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(8,-3),(8,4)

since both points have the same x value, this means you have a vertical line with an undefined slope...so ur equation would be x = 8....because no matter what y is, x will always be 8
