Write the equation of the line perpendicular to y=3/2x+3/2 that passes through the point (-1,2)​

Mathematics

Answer:

y = -2/3x + 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

comparing what we have with the general form;

y = mx + b

The slope of the given equation is 3/2

To get the slope of other;

3/2 * m = -1

3m = -2

m = -2/3

So we want to write the point-slope equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-2 = -2/3(x + 1)

3y - 6 = -2x -2

3y = -2x -2 + 6

3y = -2x + 4

y = -2/3x + 4/3

Your Question:
<span>Laurie buys four bags of candy with 10 pieces of candy in each bag. Her father then gives her 5 more pieces of candy. Laurie wants to give as much of her candy as she can to each of her six friends, and she wants to make sure they each get an equal number of pieces. How many pieces will be left over, if any, after Laurie gives her friends the candy?
My Answer:
If Laurie has four bags with ten pieces in each bag, and if her father gives her five more pieces,  she would have forty-five pieces and if she has six friends and wants to share it equally with six friends. Each friend would get 7 pieces.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 54 feet. The area of the rectangle is 176 square feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
Murrr4er [49]

Explanation:

Set up two equations

2

x

+

2

y

=

54

x

×

y

=

176

Solving the first equation for x

2

x

+

2

y

−

2

y

=

54

−

2

y

this gives

2

x

=

54

−

2

y

Divide both sides by 2

(

2

x

2

)

=

54

−

2

y

2

This gives.

x

=

27

−

y

putting this value into the second equation gives.

(

27

−

y

)

×

y

=

176

multiplying across the parenthesis gives

27

y

−

y

2

=

176

subtracting 176 from both sides gives

is

27

y

−

y

2

−

176

=

0

multiplying by negative one gives

−

27

y

+

y

2

+

176

=

0

factoring this into y gives

(

y

−

11

)

×

(

y

−

16

)

=

0

Solving for both y's gives

y

=

11

,

y

Triangle ABC and DEF are right triangles, as shown. Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF. which ratios are equal to sin C?
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

First option and Fourth option.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise you need to use the following Trigonometric Identity:

sin\alpha=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

In this case you know that:

\alpha =C

Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF:

\angle C=\angle F

Let's begin with the triangle ABC.

You can identify that:

opposite=AB\\hypotenuse=AC

Then, substituing values, you get:

sinC=\frac{AB}{AC}

In triangle DEF, you know that:

opposite=DE\\hypotenuse=DF

So, substituing values, you get:

sinF=sinC=\frac{DE}{DF}

What is the range of the function y=-x² +1?<br> A) y≤ -1<br> B) y²-1<br> C) y≤ 1<br> D) y≥ 1
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum value of x² is 0, and the maximum value is unbounded, so therefore, the maximum value of -x² is 0, and the minimum value is unbounded.

So, this means that adding 1 to this, the range matches with option C.
