8) through: (-3, -2), perp. to y = x – 1 A) y=-5x – 1 B) y=-4x – 5 C) y=-x – 5 D) y=-5x – 4

Answer:

The equation through (-3, -2) and perpendicular to y = x – 1 is y = -x -5 and option c is correct.

Solution:

Given, line equation is y = x – 1 ⇒ x – y – 1 = 0. And a point is (-3, -2)

We have to find the line equation which is perpendicular to above given line and passing through the given point.

Now, let us find the slope of the given line equation.

$\text { Slope }=\frac{-x \text { coefficient }}{y \text { coefficient }}=\frac{-1}{-1}=1$

We know that, product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.

So, 1 $\times$ slope of perpendicular line = -1

slope of perpendicular line = -1

Now let us write point slope form for our required line.

$\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{y}_{1}=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}_{1}\right)$

y – (-2) = -1(x – (-3))

y + 2 = -1(x + 3)

y + 2 = -x – 3

x + y + 2 + 3 = 0

x + y + 5 = 0

y = -x -5

Hence the equation through (-3, -2) and perpendicular to y = x – 1 is y = -x -5 and option c is correct.

12. The weight of 7 chocolate bars in grams are 131, 127,125,127,133,129 and 127

Amanda [17]

Answer:

The range is from 125 to 133.

Step-by-step explanation:

That's the lowest and highest the weights go, therefore the range is from 125 and anything in between up to 133.

How many 3/4 foot pieces of string can be cut from a piece of string 4 1/2 feet long

Gnom [1K]

3/4 foot is 9 inches, and 4 1/2 feet is 54 inches, so, 54/9 makes exactly 6 pieces of string.

Does anyone know this?!??

kondor19780726 [428]

Indeed!

This is a quadratic equation, and there are several ways to factor this. I will try to explain the way I do it and try to make sense of it.

2x^2-x-15 - Original Equation

Now set up an X(as I cannot draw very well in brainly it will look bad)

1 -3

\ /

/ \

2 5

This might all look very confusing so let me explain it.

First on the left side of the x, 1*2=2 which is the coefficient of the x^2 term.

The right side, -3*5=-15 which is the constant term.

What I did in the graph thing was to find 2 such pairs that line up in the graph in a way that the opposite corners multiplied and added together would = -1.

Such as the way I lined up the graph.

1*5(one of the diagonals) + 2*-3(the second diagonals)=5-6=-1 the coefficient of the middle term.

As long as you find 2 such pairs you got the answer, just write it from left it right then top to bottom.

The first ( ) would be (1x-3), the second ( ) would be (2x+5)

Now we can always switch the ( ) as in this problem we can write the answer as (x-3)(2x+5) or switch it around as (2x+5)(x-3).

Therefore the answer A is the correct answer.

**If you have any questions about my explanation, simply ask me in the comment section and I will come answer. (I know my explanation here isn't the most clear so you probably will ask questions and please don't just put the answer in and be done with it, actually try to understand my explanation it will help with further questions like this.)
