Answer:
<h2>
y = ¹/₂x + 6</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1
y = - 2x + 6 ⇒ m₁ = - 2
m₁m₂ = -1
-2m₂ = -1
m₂ = ⁻¹/₋₂ = ¹/₂
The Point-Slope form of equation of a line with slope of "m" and passing through point (x₁, y₁) is: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
m = ¹/₂
(-2, 5) ⇒ x₁ = -2, y₁ = 5
So the equation in point-slope form:
y - 5 = ¹/₂(x - (-2))
Therefore:
y - 5 = ¹/₂x + 1
y = ¹/₂x + 1 + 5
<h3>
y = ¹/₂x + 6</h3>
First you have to get the equation into slope/intercept format: y = mx + b
So the slope m = 2, and the y-intercept b = -1.
b tells you where the line intersects the y axis. The slope is rise (vertical distance) over run (horizontal distance). I have attached my best attempt at drawing this without graph paper. The dotted line represents the inequality, and the solution set includes the values above the line which is why it is shaded. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Correct answer: Db = 411 .18 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
α = 27° angle of depression
Dt = 462 ft distance from the top of lighthouse to the boat
Db = ? distance from the base of the lighthouse to the boat
Here we have a right triangle with hypotenuse Dt and one leg Db.
By definition
cos α = Db / Dt ⇒ Db = Dt · cos α
Db = 462 · cos 27° = 462 · 0.89 = 411 .18 ft
Db = 411 .18 ft
God is with you!!!
