Answer:

Correct answer:  sa · sb = 2/3 · (- 3/2) = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

line A - (x₁, y₁) = (3, -4)   and (x₂, y₂) = (6, -2)

line B - (x₁, y₁) = (-1, 5)   and (x₂, y₂) = (1, 2)

The slope is calculated using the following formula:

s = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

sa = (-2 - (-4)) / (6 - 3) = (-2 + 4) / 3 = 2 / 3

sa = 2 / 3

sb = (2 - 5) / (1 - (-1)) = -3 / 2

when lines are perpendicular to each other then the slopes are in the next relationship:

sa · sb = - 1

we will check:

sa · sb = 2/3 · (- 3/2) = - 1

X-4y=7 -6x-3y=12 how do i solve by substitution​
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

x = 15

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

X-4y=7 | ×6 |

-6x-3y=12 | ×1 |

6x - 24y = 42

-6x - 3y = 12

___________+

27y = 54

y = 54/27

y = 2

x - 4y = 7

x - 4(2) = 7

x - 8 = 7

x = 7 + 8

x = 15

2. A solar lease customer built up an excess of 6,500 kilowatt hours (kwh) during the summer using his solar
tia_tia [17]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a)  E = 6500 -50d

  b)  5000 kWh

  c)  the excess will last only 130 days, not enough for 5 months

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>:

  starting excess (E): 6500 kWh

  usage: 50 kWh/day (d)

<u>Find</u>:

  a) E(d)

  b) E(30)

  c) E(150)

<u>Solution</u>:

a) The exces is linearly decreasing with the number of days, so we have ...

  E(d) = 6500 -50d

__

b) After 30 days, the excess remaining is ...

  E(30) = 6500 -50(30) = 5000 . . . . kWh after 30 days

__

c) After 150 days, the excess remaining would be ...

  E(150) = 6500 -50(150) = 6500 -7500 = -1000 . . . . 150 days is beyond the capacity of the system

The supply is not enough to last for 5 months.

If an object is projected upward with an initial velocity of 126 ft per​ sec, its height h after t seconds is h= -16^2+126t. Fin
Phoenix [80]
All you would have to do is plug in 5 for t since that is the time; then you would see that the height of the object after 5 seconds is 886 ft. Hope this helped!
