Answer:

y=-(4x/3) -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope=m= -4/3

y intercept = c = -1

now using equation;

y= mx+c

y= (-4/3)x+(-1)

y=-(4x/3) -1

Passing through (2, - 2) and perpendicular to the line whose equation is y= 5x+2

jonny [76]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!!

Here,

Given, A line passes through point (2,-2) and is perpendicular to the y= 5x+2.

The equation of a straight line passing through point is,

$(y - y1) = m1(x - x1)$

Now, put all values.

$(y + 2) = m1(x - 2)$

It is the 1st equation.

Another equation is;

y = 5x +2........(2nd equation).

Now, Comparing it with y = mx + c, we get;

m2=5

As per the condition of perpendicular lines,

m1×m2= -1

m1 × 5 = -1

Therefore, m2= -1/5.

Keeping the value of m1 in 1st equation.

$(y + 2) = \frac{ - 1}{5} (x - 2)$

Simplify them.

$5(y + 2) = - x + 2$

$5y + 10 = - x + 2$

$x + 5y + 8 = 0$

Therefore the required equation is x+5y+8= 0.

Hope it helps...

The average monthly rainfall for 6 months was 28.5 mm. If it had rained 1mm more each month what would the average have been? By

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

29.5 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the average monthly rainfall for 6 months was 28.5 mm.

Thus, total for the 6 months = 28.5 × 6 = 171 mm

Now, we are told that it rained 1 mm extra each month.

So extra for the six months = 1 × 6 = 6mm

New total for 6 months = 171 + 6 = 177 mm

So, new average for 6 months = 177/6 = 29.5 mm

Without calculating, would 0.4+(2+0.6) be less than , greater than, or equal to 3? Explain.

Ainat [17]

It would be greater than three because it is addition and when you add it is to increase not decrease. good luck!
