So the equation has to pass through (6,-1) and be perpendicular to y = -2x + 8.
The slope is -2, and to get the slope of a line perpendicular to another line you have to find the negative reciprocal of that slope. That means -2 is equal to
-2/1, and if you flip those numbers and find the opposite of that number making it positive, the slope of a line perpendicular to it is 1/2.
But the line also has to pass through (6,-1), so we have to find the y-intercept of the new line.
To do that, you multiply 6(the x) by the 1/2(the slope) and get 3. Then you subtract 3(previous answer) from -1(the y) and get -4. That means the y-intercept is -4!
All that's left is to build the equation with this information. The equation is:
y = -4 + 1/2x
Hope this helps!
Answer:
3 ft per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the distance and divide by the time
3/4 ft ÷ 1/4 minute
Copy dot flip
3/4 * 4/1
Rewriting
3/1 * 4/4
3/1 *1
3 ft per minute
2x2(2x+1)(2x-1) this is the answer I got.
They would make 32,760 together in a year. One person would make 7.50 a hour times 42 hours, which would be 315 a week. You would times that by 52 weeks in a year and get 16,380 for one person per year. Multiply 16,380 by two people and you would find that they make 33,760 a year.
