Answer:

y=5/2 .   *the question doesn't specify a y-intercept for the perpendicular line so just leave it as if it passes through 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you isolate y to put the line in slope intercept form. Then, you take the slope and find the reciprocal(-5/2) then flip the sign giving you a slope of 5/2.

A rectangle has a length of 23 feet less than 10 times it’s width . If the area of the rectangle is 770 square feet find the len
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle is 54 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Area of rectangle = 770 square feet

The length is 23 feet less than 10 times its width

I.e Let The length of rectangle = L feet

And The breadth of rectangle = B feet

According to question

Length = 10 times width - 23

Or , L = 10 × B - 23

or, L = 10 B - 23

Now, Since Area of rectangle = A = Length × Breadth

Or, A = L × B

Or, 770 ft² = ( 10 B - 23 ) × B

Or, 770 = 10 B² - 23 B

Or, 10 B² - 23 B - 770 = 0

Now, solving this quadratic equation to get the value of B

Or, B = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\times a\times c}}{2\times a}

or, B =  \frac{23\pm \sqrt{(-23)^{2}-4\times 10\times (-770)}}{2\times 10}

Or, B = \frac{-23\pm \sqrt{31329}}{20}

Or, B = \frac{-23 + 177}{20} , \frac{-23 - 177}{20}

∴ B = 7.7 , -10

So, The breadth of the rectangle = B = 7.7 feet

So, The length of the rectangle = L = ( 10 × 7.7 - 23 )

I.e L = 54 feet

Hence The length of the rectangle is 54 feet . Answer

(-12,16) and (-4,-2)find the slope
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

It's -9/4 or -2 1/4. please mark me brainliest <3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) label x1, y1, x2, and y2.

x1     y1       x2 y2

(-12, 16)     (-4,-2)

2) Remember the formula is y2-y1

                                               --------

                                                x2-x1

3) substitute

-2-16

--------

-4-(-12)

4) two minuses (negatives) is a positive (+)

so,

-2-16             -18

---------=       --------

-4+12               8

5) simplify

-18 divided by 2          -9

-----                          =   -------    or -2 1/4

  8 divided by 2             4
