Answer:
(0,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative reciprocals of each other. The slope of the line y=1/2x + 6 is 1/2. The slope perpendicular to it is -2.
Using m=-2, substitute it and (4,-3) into the point slope form and simplify to find the y-intercept.
The equation is now in slope intercept form y=mx+b and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of y=-2x+5 is (0,5).
Answer:
The common difference (or common ratio) = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let the first term be = 80
ii) let the second term be =
. r = 80 × r = 60 ∴ r =
= 0.75
iii) let the third term be =
. r = 60 × r = 45 ∴ r =
= 0.75
iv) let the fourth term be =
. r = 45 × r = 33.75 ∴ r =
= 0.75
Therefore we can see that the series of numbers are part of a geometric progression and the first term is 80 and the common ratio = 0.75.
