Answer:

y = -1/4x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Hey there!</em>

<em />

Well to the slopes of 2 perpendicular lines are reciprocals of each other meaning if the line has a slope of 4 then it’s perpendicular line has a slope of -1/4.

Now to find the y intercept we need to graph,

y = -1/4x and point (4, -11)

Look at the image below.

By looking at the image below we can tell that in order for the perpendicular line to go through point (4,-11) it would be -10.

The equation is y = -1/4x - 10

<span>f(x) = x2 + 4 g(x) = x2 − x + 5

</span>f(x) · g(x) = (fg)(x) = (x^2 + 4)(<span> x^2 − x + 5)
</span>f(x) · g(x) = (fg)(x) = x^4 - x^3 + 5x^2 + 4x^2 - 4x + 20
f(x) · g(x) = (fg)(x) = x^4 - x^3 + 9x^2 - 4x + 20

answer
f(x) · g(x) = (fg)(x) =
x^4 - x^3 + 9x^2 - 4x + 20

Answer:

$.10/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find whats called a "unit ratio", which is a fancy word for saying anything:1. You would find this by dividing the 2 values together

12.77/126

He would make around $.10

At the beginning of a snowstorm, Madeline had 11 inches of snow on her lawn. The snow then began to fall at a constant rate of 0

You would just take .5x5 which would be 2.5 inches without the snow melting it would add up to 13.5in the last part with the tt I’m not sure but it follows the same principle .5x(Time)+the original amount will give you the answer
