Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = x + 11

y = 1/2x + 11/2

perp. -2

y + 5 = -2(x - 6)

y + 5 = -2x + 12

y = -2x + 7

Using point slope form write the equation of the line that passes through the point (-1/2, 1/2) and has a slope of -1

lesantik [10]

Answer: $y-\frac{1}{2}=-(x+\frac{1}{2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of the line is:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Where "m" is the slope of the line and $(x_1,y_1)$ is a point of the line.

You know the value of the slope and you also know a point of the line, then you need to substitute values into $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$ .

Therefore, you get that the equation of this line in point-slope form is:

$y-\frac{1}{2}=-1(x-(-\frac{1}{2})\\\\y-\frac{1}{2}=-(x+\frac{1}{2})$

The car is traveling up a steep ramp to a parking garage. The ramp is 445 feet long and rises a vertical distance of 80 feet. Wh

Olin [163]

The ramp is modelled as shown in the diagram below.

The angle of elevation from the car is the angle form by the horizontal line and the observer eye from the car. In the diagram, this angle is marked by $x$

We use trigonometry ratio to work out the value of $x$

$tan(x)= \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$
$tan(x)= \frac{80}{445}$
$x= tan^{-1}( \frac{80}{445})$
$x=10.19$ °
