Answer:

The equation that represents the new path is y=(1/2)x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the give line

we have

y=-2x-7

so

the slope m is equal to

m=-2

step 2

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other

so

we have

m=-2 -----> slope of the given line

therefore

The slope of the perpendicular line is equal to

m=1/2

step 3

With m=1/2 and the point (-2,-3) find the equation of the line

y-y1=m(x-x1)

substitute

y+3=(1/2)(x+2)

y=(1/2)x+1-3

y=(1/2)x-2 -----> equation that represent the new path

If i have $50 dollars and get $20 dollars a week how much money do i nees to save to get $200 in a month?
ipn [44]
200-50= 150
So you need to get 150 dollars in a month. If you get 20 dollars a week, then 150/20 will give you 7.5. So it will take you 7.5 weeks to get 150 dollars

Answer: 32.35 cm^2

Step by step:

Find the area of the rectangle first.

A= L • W
A= 11 • 4.2
A= 46.2 cm^2

Then find the area of the circle. The formula is A= pi (r)^2. The diameter of the circle is 4.2 cm because looking at the width of the rectangle it fits into the circle as well.

Half of the diameter is 2.1 cm which is the radius.

A= pi (r)^2
A= pi (2.1)^2
A= pi (4.41)
A= 13.85 cm^2

Then you would subtract 13.85 from 46.2 to find the shaded portion.

Hope this helps :))

Answer:

Gavin uses more rope.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 1/4>1/8, since 1/4=0.25 and 1/8=0.125.
