Answer:

<h2>         y = ¹/₂x + 6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1

y = - 2x + 6  ⇒   m₁ = - 2

m₁m₂ = -1

-2m₂ = -1

m₂ = ⁻¹/₋₂ = ¹/₂

The Point-Slope form of equation of a line with slope of "m" and passing through point (x₁, y₁) is:  y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = ¹/₂

(-2, 5)  ⇒  x₁ = -2,  y₁ = 5

So the equation in point-slope form:

                                                  y - 5 = ¹/₂(x - (-2))

Therefore:

y - 5 = ¹/₂x + 1

y = ¹/₂x + 1 + 5

<h3>y = ¹/₂x + 6</h3>

981 rounded to nearest 100
sergey [27]

Answer: 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

     9         8       1

Hundred tens one

The question is asking for to round to the nearest hundred (100) which means is rounding to [9] in this question.

The number of the place before the hundreds place is [8] on the tens place.

  • When numbers are greater than or equal to 5, you round up a digit.
  • When numbers are less than 5, you round down a digit.

[8] is greater than 5, so you round 9 up. When rounding 9 up, you get 10.

<h2>So, the final number will be 1000</h2>

An ant crawls at a rate of 216 ft per minute.
AysviL [449]
First, we need to understand the speed formula:

The time used = distance ÷ rate

In this case, the time needed would be:

5 1/5 ÷ 2 1/6
= (5×5+1)/5 ÷ (2×6+1)/6
=26/5 ÷ 13/6

When there is division in an equaiton, we can swap the nominator and denominator of the fraction amd change it to multiplication:

=26/5 × 6/13
= (13 x 2)/5 x 6/(13 x 1)

Factorize 26 and 13,we get:

=2/5 x 6/1
= 12/5 ft or 2.4 ft

Therefore the answer is 12/5ft or 2.4ft.

Hope it helps!
