Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Slope (m1) = 4

As it is said that the lines are perpendicular so we have

m1 * m2 = - 1

4 * m2 = - 1

m2 = - 1/4

The slope of the line perpendicular to line m is

- 1/4

Hope it will help :)❤

Answer:

The slope of the perpendicular line is -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

Let the slope of the perpendicular line have sloe p

m*p = -1

4 * p = -1

Divide each side by 4

p = -1/4

The slope of the perpendicular line is -1/4

Graph the function<br> Need help ASAP plz
sattari [20]

Given:

The equation of a function is

y=(x-4)^2+1

To find:

The graph of the given function.

Solution:

The vertex form of a parabola is

y=(x-h)^2+k        ...(i)

Where, (h,k) is vertex of the parabola.

We have,

y=(x-4)^2+1         ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

h=4, k=1

The vertex of the parabola is (4,1).

Now, the table of values is

x             y

2            5

3            2

4             1

5            2

6            5

Plot these points on a coordinate plane and connect them by a free hand curve.

The graph of given function is shown below.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A shopper paid $2.52 for 4.5 pounds of potatoes. This means that the unit price for each potato would be

2.52/4.5 = 0.55556

Approximately $0.6 per pound.

The shopper paid $7.75 for 2.5 pounds of broccoli. This means that the unit price for each broccoli would be

7.75/2.5 = $3.1 per pound.

The shopper paid $2.45 for 2.5 pounds of pears. This means that the unit price for each pear would be

2.45/2.5 = $0.98 per pound

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

<em>n</em> - <em>k</em> + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is assuming (because you did not say) that <em>n</em> and <em>k</em> are integers and <em>n</em> is greater than <em>k</em>.

Example: from 2 to 5 {2, 3, 4, 5} includes 5 - 2 + 1 = 4 numbers.

Example: from -6 to 4 includes 4 - (-6) + 1 = 11 numbers, namely {-6, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4}
