Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point.

Answer:

y = 3x + 2

y = 6x – 3

y = 2/3x + 6

y = –1/3x – 4

y = 2x + 1

Correct answer:

y = 3x + 2

Explanation:

Convert the equation to slope intercept form to get y = –1/3x + 2.  The old slope is –1/3 and the new slope is 3.  Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

With the new slope, use the slope intercept form and the point to calculate the intercept: y = mx + b or 5 = 3(1) + b, so b = 2

So y = 3x + 2

Answer:

40π feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the diameter of a circle you can find the circumference much easily than the radius. To find circumference with diameter you would do π×d or in this case π*40 which would give you the answer 40π.

Bernie has $16000 invested, part at 3% and the remainder at 5%. If the yearly interest on each investment is the same, how much
Snowcat [4.5K]
If the interest is the same for both accounts then:

.03x=.05(16000-x)

.03x=800-.05x

.08x=800

x=10000, since the interest is the same for both we can just double the interest from one investment to find the total interest earned each year...

.03(10000)2=$600.00

bija089 [108]

Answer:

30 dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 40 cats, and 25% more cats than dogs. If you find 25% of 40, you get 10. That means there are 10 more cats than dogs. 40-10= 30.

30 dogs.
