What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is

Mathematics

Answer:

The slope of the other line is -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the slope of a line which is perpendicular to the line ;

10x - 8y = -80

The first thing to do here is to write the equation in the standard form for a linear equation.

The standard form is y = mx + c where m refers to the slope and c refers to the y-intercept

Rewriting the equation we have;

8y-80 = 10x

8y = 10x + 80

Now divide the through by 8

We have;

y = 10x/8 + 10

Thus, comparing with y = mx + c , our m here is 10/8

Now for the two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slope would be equals to -1

Let’s say the slopes are m1 and m2

mathematically m1m2 = -1

since m1 = 10/8

10m2/8 = -1

m2 = -8/10

m2 = -4/5

URGENT PLEASE HELP ME ON THIS QUESTION.!!! the first term of a sequence of numbers is 18
Fynjy0 [20]
Well this problem can be solved with Algebra

the rule here is that for every incrementing sequence you increase your number by 6.

T(n)=18+6(n-1)

for 603 to be in the sequence, it has to male sense with the function above

603=18+6(n-1)

603-18=585

585=6(n-1)

n-1=(585/6)

n=(585+6)/6

n=591/6

here is your answer.

mixer [17]

Answer:

2162.2 degrees Celsius

Step-by-step explanation:

Celsius (°C) = (Fahrenheit - 32) / 1.8

3924-32 = 3892

3982 / 1.8 = 2162.2222222222222222222222

Rounded is 2162.2

A triangle has sides of 18cm and 32cm. The measurement of the longest side is missing. Ted says that one possibility for the unk
gulaghasi [49]
Since the measurement of the longest side is missing we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse or longest side.

18^2 + 32^2 = c (hypotenuse) ^2
324 + 1,024 = c^2
1,348 = c^2
sqrt 1,348 = c
36.72 = c
i do not agree with ted because when you use the pythagorean theorem you do not get 47cm

this can be proved by
18^2 + 32 ^2 = 47^2
we already know the left side is 1,348
1,348 = 47^2
1,348 does not equal 2,209 which is 47 squared
