Answer:

y=(-1/3) x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that is perpendicular to it has a slope that is an opposite reciprocal, which in this case is -1/3.  Now you use point slope form which is y-y1=m(x-x1) that would be y+5=-1/3(x-6).  Distribute the -1/3 and get y+5= -1/3 x+ 2.  Subtract 5 from both sides and get y=-1/3 x - 3

The height, h, of a falling object t seconds after it is dropped from a platform 300 feet above the ground is modeled by the fun
notka56 [123]
Average rate = [h(3) - h(0)]/(3 - 0)
h(3) = 300 - 16(3)^2 = 300 - 16(9) = 300 - 144 = 156
h(0) = 300 - 16(0)^2 = 300

average rate = (156 - 300)/3 = -144/3 = -48

Therefore, the object falls with an average rate of 48 ft/s during the first 3 seconds.

Prior to September, 2000, taxi fares from Washington DC to Maryland were described as follows: $2.00 up to and including 1⁄2 mil
GREYUIT [131]

The piecewise function is

f(x) = 2, 0 < x ≤ 1/2

f(x) = 2 + 0.7x, x > 1/2

<h3>How to determine the piecewise function?</h3>

From the question, we have:

Fares = $2.00 ⇒ up to (and including) 1/2 miles

Fares = $0.70 increment ⇒ greater than 1/2 miles

Let x represent the number of miles, and f(x) the fares.

So, we have:

f(x) = 2, 0 < x ≤ 1/2

f(x) = 2 + 0.7x, x > 1/2

The above represents the piecewise function
