What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y= 3/5x+10 and passes through the point (15,5)?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is really super super simple as long as you know the rules for finding a perpedicular slope from a given line. The perpendicular slope of a line is the opposite reciprocal of the given slope. Our given slope is 3/5, therefore, the perpendicular slope is -5/3. There's only one line with that exact slope, so the choice is the last one. (BTW, check the coordinate you gave. It should be

(15, -5), not (15, 5)!)

Write the equation of the following graph in intercept form.

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

A) $f(x)=0.2(x+2)(x-5)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph has x-intercepts at $x=5$ and $x=-2$ , so our factors for the polynomial will be $x+2$ and $x-5$ . This means we can rule out options B and D.

Our graph also has a y-intercept of $y=-2$ when $x=0$ , so if we let $f(x)=-2$ and $x=0$ , we can find the multiplier:

$f(x)=a(x+2)(x-5)\\-2=a(0+2)(0-5)\\-2=a(2)(-5)\\-2=-10a\\\frac{1}{5}=a\\0.2=a$

Thus, the correct equation is A) $f(x)=0.2(x+2)(x-5)$

The price of a video game at Game Word has increased from $36 to $45 each. What was the percent change?

andriy [413]

Step-by-step explanation:

price difference= $45-$36

=$9

now,

x% of $45=$9

or, x/100 ×45 =9

or, x/20 ×9=9

or, x/20=1

therefore, x= 20%
