Answer:

y=2x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to answer this would be by using the slope-intercept form equation, y=mx+b. In this case, we can use our given in information to plug in values and find the equation.

Firstly, let's assess what know and what we don't:

Given the point (2,-3), we know that x=2 and y=-3. Now the slope for a perpendicular line can be found using a negative reciprocal, since the product of the slopes of both lines should equal -1. Therefore the slope must be 2.

All that's left is b, the y-intercept. To solve for this, we simply plug in what we have.

y=mx+b

-3=2(2)+b

-3=4+b

-3-4=b

-7=b

Now that we have b, we can write the equation:

y=2x-7

A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.1 ft/s,
pishuonlain [190]
 <span>let: 
X = the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall at any time 
dX/dt = rate of travel of the bottom of the ladder = 1.1 ft/sec 
A = the angle of the ladder with the ground at anytime 
dA/dt = rate of change of the angle in radians per second 

X = 10 cos A 

dX/dt= -10 sin A dA/dt = 1.1 

dA/dt = -1.1/(10 sinA) 

When X = 6; cosA = 6/10; sinA = 8/10 

Therefore: 

dA/dt = -1.1/(10 x 0.8) = -0.1375 radiant per second. </span>

The smallest side of a 30-60-90
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer: A 30-60-90 triangle is a special right triangle (a right triangle being any triangle that contains a 90 degree angle) that always has degree angles of 30 degrees, 60 degrees, and 90 degrees. Because it is a special triangle, it also has side length values which are always in a consistent relationship with one another.

The basic 30-60-90 triangle ratio is:

Side opposite the 30° angle: x

Side opposite the 60° angle: x*√3

Side opposite the 90° angle: 2x

What is the slope and the y-intercept of the line on the graph below?
ss7ja [257]

slope = change in y / change is x

slope = rise / run

change in y = -1 (goes down 1)

change is x = 4 (goes right 4)

slope = -1/4

y-intercept, when x = 0

y-intercept = 1 = (0,1)
