Answer:

y = -1/2x + 17/2

Explanation:

y = 2x + 1 is in slope intercept form

in the equation y = mx+b, m is the slope, and in the equation m =2

the slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the other slope.

slope of perpendicular= -1/m = -1/2

y = -1/2x + b

now find b by substituting in (1,8) into the partial equation

8 = -1/2 + b

b = 8+ 1/2

b = 17/2

please give thanks :) hope this helps

Help me do examples for a function and a non function

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

{(1,2) (3,4) (5,6)} and {(1,2) (1,4) (5,6)}

Step-by-step explanation:

you really want to think of a function as a vending machine. if you press B12 on a vending machine because thats where the chips are, only the chips should come out. in a function, the input value aka x (B12, what youre putting in) should only have one output value aka y, (the chips)

an example of a function would be {(1,2) (3,4) (5,6)}

an important thing to remember is that one output value can belong to multiple input values. there can be chips (output) in both B12 and C12 (inputs) BUT as i said before, there CANNOT be two outputs for one input. B12 cannot give you both chips and a drink.

using this, another example of a function would be {(1,2) (3,2) (5,2)}

an example of an non function would be {(1,2) (1,4) (5,6)} because x, the input value, has multiple output values which is not possible. the output of 1 can not be 2 and 4 at the same time which we can see in the (x,y) coordinates.

Divide and write in simplest form 2 1/7 divided by 1 1/4

stich3 [128]

Hi!

<h3>To divide a fraction, you multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction. </h3><h3>First, convert the mixed numbers to fractions, by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding that to the numerator. </h3>

---------------

2 * 7 = 14

14 + 1 = 15

15/7

---------------

4 * 1 = 4

4 + 1 = 5

5/4

---------------

<u> $\frac{15}{7} * \frac{4}{5} = \frac{60}{35} (simplify) = 1 \frac{5}{7}$ </u>

<h2>The answer is 1 5/7 </h2>

Hope this helps! :)

Can someone please help me with this question?

CaHeK987 [17]

No. you need to multiply both sides by 11 which would make it -88 > t. 99 is not less than -88

Which statement about convergent infinite

balandron [24]

Answer:

B) Convergent infinite geometric series sum to a single value

Step-by-step explanation:

An infinite geometric series of the form $\[ \sum_{r=1}^{\infty} ar^{n-1}$ converges if $|r|$ , so the summation of the series will result in a single value if that is true.
