NOTE THAT A line that is perpendicular to another has a negative inverse of the slope of the other line. The products of their slopes, that is, is always -1

Therefore we can begin by finding the slope of this line defined by the function 4x+3y=9

3y = -4x + 9

y = -4/3 x + 9/3

y = -4/3 x + 3

The slope of the perpendicular line is, therefore;

¾ - this is the negative inverse of -4/3

Now that we know the slope, we need to find the y-intercept. This is where x = 0 and the line meets the y-axis;

i.e (0, y)

The other given point, where the line crosses is (-2, 3). Remember that to get the gradient we use the formula;

Gradient = Δ y / Δ x

¾ = (3 – y) / (-2 – 0)

¾ = (3 –y) / -2

¾ * -2 = 3 – y

-3/2 = 3 – y

-3/2 – 3 = -y

9/2 = y ←– This is the y-intercept

Remember the function of a straight line is given;

y = mx + c (m being slope and c being y-intercept)

y = 3/4 x + 9/2

4y = 3x + 18

For questions 3 – 5, an airplane is heading south at an airspeed of 540 km/hr, but there is a wind blowing from the northeast at

GuDViN [60]

First, let's calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the wind speed (W) and the airplane speed (A), knowing that south is a bearing of 270° and northeast is a bearing of 45°:

$\begin{gathered} W_x=W\cos45°\\ \\ W_x=50\cdot0.707\\ \\ W_x=35.35\\ \\ \\ \\ W_y=W\sin45°\\ \\ W_y=50\cdot0.707\\ \\ W_y=35.35 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} A_x=A\cos270°\\ \\ A_x=540\cdot0\\ \\ A_x=0\\ \\ \\ \\ A_y=A\sin270°\\ \\ A_y=540\cdot(-1)\\ \\ A_y=-540 \end{gathered}$

Now, let's add the components of the same direction:

$\begin{gathered} V_x=W_x+A_x=35.35+0=35.35\\ \\ V_y=W_y+A_y=35.35-540=-504.65 \end{gathered}$

To find the resultant bearing (theta), we can use the formula below:

$\begin{gathered} \theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{V_y}{V_x})\\ \\ \theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{-504.65}{35.35})\\ \\ \theta=-86° \end{gathered}$

The angle -86° is equivalent to -86 + 360 = 274°.

Therefore the correct option is b.
