Answer:

3y=x-1 OR y=⅓x-⅓

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call the equation y=-3x+7 line l1

the other line passing through (4,1) l2

If two lines are perpendicular,then the product of their roots=-1

That is m(l1)×m(l2)=-1

Slope of l1=-3 therefore slope of l2=-1÷-3=⅓

Now that we have determined the slope of l2 we move on to find it's equation using the point-slope form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=⅓(x-4)

3y-3=x-4

3y=x-4+3

3y=x-1 OR y=⅓x-⅓

Alan multiplies a 4-digit number by 36. How can you tell the

mafiozo [28]

The number of partial products Alan will have when he multiplies a 4-digit number by 36 is; 8 partial products.

First, we must establish that a 4-digit number will have 4 place values namely;

Thousands
Hundreds
Tens
Ones.

And since, 36 has 2 place values;

We can conclude that the number of partial products that Alan wil have is; 2× 4 = 8.

In ΔOPQ, the measure of ∠Q=90°, OQ = 24, QP = 7, and PO = 25. What is the value of the tangent of ∠O to the nearest hundredth?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer: 0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

OQ is the side opposite angle P, QP is the side opposite angle O, and PO is the side opposite angle Q.

This means that tangent = opposite/adjacent, the tangent of angle O is the opposite side, QP, over the length of the adjacent side, OQ. (It cannot be PO since that's the hypotenuse)

This means that the tangent of O is 7/24, which is about 0.29
