What is the equation of a line l that has an x-intercept of (5, 0) and is perpendicular to another line m that has a slope -5?

Mathematics

Paul [167]3 years ago

Answer:

y=\frac{1}{5}x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a perpendicular line is the "negative reciprocal" of the slope of the original line (i.e m=-5)

∴  m=-\frac{1}{-5}=\frac{1}{5}

the slope-intercept form: y=mx+c

with

m=\frac{1}{5}

and c=5

is

y=\frac{1}{5}x+5

Can someone help me with (a) and (c)? Thanks! ;D
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Mark any two points in line a

(0,7)  ; (5,-3)

Find the slope

slope = y2 - y1 /x2-x1

=\frac{-3-7}{5-0}\\\\=\frac{-10}{5}\\\\=-2

Equation: y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 7 = -2(x - 0)

y - 7 = -2x

y = -2x + 7    --------> line a

c) equation of line b

(2,-1);  slope = -2  {as b line is parallel to line a}

y - y1 =m(x-x1)

y -(-1) = -2*(x - 2)

y + 1 = -2x - 2*-2

y + 1 = -2x + 2

y = -2x + 2 -1

y = -2x +1   ------> equation of line b

What is the first step in finding the unit price on a box of 20 pencils?
olga55 [171]

You would need to know the cost of the box of 20, then you would divide the total cost by the number of pencils in the box. This would give you the cost of one pencil - which is the unit cost.


Example:

Lets say the box of 20 pencils cost $10.


Divide the total cost by the number of pencils:

10 / 20 = 0.50 - This means each pencil cost 50 cents, so the unit cost would be 50 cents per pencil.
