<u>Given</u>:

Given that the graph of the equation of the line.

The line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2,-1)

We need to determine the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line.

<u>Slope of the given line:</u>

The slope of the given line can be determined by substituting any two coordinates from the line in the slope formula,

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Substituting the coordinates (-1,3) and (2,2), we get;

m_1=\frac{2-3}{2+1}

m_1=-\frac{1}{3}

Thus, the slope of the given line is m_1=-\frac{1}{3}

<u>Slope of the perpendicular line:</u>

The slope of the perpendicular line can be determined by

m_2=-\frac{1}{m_1}

Substituting m_1=-\frac{1}{3}, we get;

m_2=-\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{3}}

simplifying, we get;

m_2=3

Thus, the slope of the perpendicular line is 3.

<u>Equation of the perpendicular line:</u>

The equation of the perpendicular line can be determined using the formula,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Substituting m=3 and the point (2,-1) in the above formula, we have;

y+1=3(x-2)

y+1=3x-6

     y=3x-7

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=3x-7

Hence, Option d is the correct answer.

liam has 8 3/4 gallons of paint. he wants to use 2/5 of paint to paint his livingroom. how many gallons of paint will liam use?​
slava [35]

<u>Answer:</u>

Liam will use 3.5 gallons of paint to paint his living room

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that Liam has 8 \frac{3}{4} gallons of paint.

He uses \frac{2}{5} of paint to paint his living room

We need to find how many gallons of paint will Liam use

The gallons of paint Liam used can be found as follows:

Amount of paint Liam has = 8 \frac{3}{4} gallons  

Converting mixed fraction 8 \frac{3}{4} to decimal we get 8.75

Amount of paint used = 2/5th of available amount  

= \frac{2}{5} \times 8.75=3.5 \text { or } 3 \frac{1}{2} \text { gallons }

Hence Liam will use 3.5 gallons of paint to paint his living room

Answer:

1. 8.19, 2. 25.96, 3. 3.95

Step-by-step explanation:

use soh cah toa

1. cos is adjacent/hypotenuse

cos73=x/28

multiply both sides by 28

28cos73=x=8.186

2. sin is opposite over hypotenuse

sin68=x/28

multiply both sides by 28

28sin68=x=25.961

3. sin is opposite over hypotenuse

sin26=x/9

myltiply both sides by 9

9sin26=x=3.945

Write an equation of the line containing the point (3,5) and perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=5
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the equation of the line perpendicular to the given line, we first have to know what the slope of the given line is, and there's no way to tell by looking at it in its current form, which is standard. We need to solve that equation for y to determine the slope of that line. Solving for y:

-3y=-4x+5 and

3y = 4x - 5 (just change all the signs so our y term isn't negative anymore...yes, you're "allowed" to do that!) and

y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{5}{3} So we can see now that the slope of this line is 4/3. That means that the perpendicular slope is -3/4. Passing through the given point (3, 5):

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}(x-3)* and

y-5=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4} and

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{9}{4}+\frac{20}{4} so

y=-\frac{3}{4}x+\frac{29}{4}** and, in standard form:

4y = -3x + 29 and

3x + 4y = 29***

* : point-slope form

** : slope-intercept form

*** : standard form
