Answer:
y = -x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
eqn of line: y=mx+c
perpendicular, m1 x m2 = -1
m × 1 = -1
m = -1
y=-x+c
sub x=-5, y=6
6 = -(-5) +c
6 = 5 + c
c = 1
y = -x + 1
The formula for the light bend would be n1*sin i= n2 * sin r
If you use "sin (90-x)= cos x" principle, you can change the sin in the equation into
n1*sin i= n2 * sin r
n1 * cos a= n2 * cos b
n2/n1= cos a/ cos b
Assuming the n constant is the ratio of the glass compared to water then the answer would be: cos a/ cos b
2/11 is 0.181818 as a decimal so closest to 0.
A)

B)

C)

D)

You were correct, the exact answer is A. The others do not equal 23 besides that one. Good job!
The two possible answers are w = 3 and w = -1/5
These answers can be obtained through solving to the absolute value symbols.
<span>−2∣5w−7∣+9=−7 ---> subtract 9 from both sides
</span><span>−2∣5w−7∣= -16 ---> divide both sides by -2
</span>∣5w−7∣= 8
Now, because of the absolute value symbols, set the inside equal to 8 and -8 for the two answers.
5w - 7 = 8
5w = 15
w = 3
AND
5w - 7 = -8
5w = -1
w = -1/5
