How do you find a parallel aandmd perpendicular line using a graph

Mathematics
1 answer:
yulyashka [42]3 years ago
7 0

The problem asks for the equations of the lines, so you use the information given in the graph to help you write the equations.

The given line has a "rise" of -4 for a "run" of 1, hence a slope of -4/1 = -4. This is the information you need from that line to write the equations of lines through the given point, (4, 3).

(a) The parallel line will have the same slope. You are asked for "an equation", so the simplest is to provide the necessary equation in point-slope form.

The equation of a line with slope m through point (h, k) is ...

... y - k = m(x - h)

For m = -4, (h, k) = (4, 3) your parallel line is ...

... y - 3 = -4(x -4)

(b) The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of that of the given line: -1/-4 = 1/4. Using the same point-slope form, your perpendicular line has equation ...

... y - 3 = (1/4)(x - 4)

If p q r is prime numbers such that pq+r=73, what is the least possible value of p+q+r
Jobisdone [24]
The answer to this question would be: p+q+r = 2 + 17 + 39= 58

In this question, p q r is a prime number. Most of the prime number is an odd number. If p q r all odd number, it wouldn't be possible to get 73 since
odd x odd + odd= odd + odd = even
Since 73 is an odd number, it is clear that one of the p q r needs to be an even number. 

There is only one odd prime number which is 2. If you put 2 in the r the result would be:
pq+2= 73
pq= 71
There will be no solution for pq since 71 is prime number. That mean 2 must be either p or q. Let say that 2 is p, then the equation would be: 2q + r= 73

The least possible value of p+q+r would be achieved by founding the highest q since its coefficient is 2 times r. Maximum q would be 73/2= 36.5 so you can try backward from that. Since q= 31, q=29, q=23 and q=19 wouldn't result in a prime number r, the least result would be q=17
r= 73-2q
r= 73- 2(17)
r= 73-34=39

p+q+r = 2 + 17 + 39= 58

On a given day, 36 of the 445 students in a school were absent. What was the appproximate absentee rate that day?
Nata [24]

Answer: The approximate absentee rate that day would be 8.09%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students who were absent = 36

Total number of  students = 445

We need to find the approximate absentee rate that day :

Rate of absentee of that day would be

\dfrac{\text{Number of absentee}}{\text{Total number of students}}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{36}{445}\times 100\\\\=8.09\%

Hence, the approximate absentee rate that day would be 8.09%.
