(4,5)(2,1)
slope = (1 - 5) / (2 - 4) = -4/-2 = 2
(-2,3)(-4,4)
slope = (4 - 3) / (-4 - (-2) = 1/(-4 + 2) = -1/2
2 and -1/2 are negative reciprocals of each other....therefore, ur lines are perpendicular <==
Answer:
Not the smartest person, but the graph shows that they're pointing down!
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the polynomial has degree 2, we can assume that there are 2 solutions (roots), whether real or imaginary.
You can subtract 60 in order to put this in standard form
48x^2+44x-60 = 0
From there, just put a,b, and c into the quadratic formula and you're good to solve for your answers.
(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a
(-44+-sqrt(44^2-4(48)(-60)))/2(48)
Then solve.
There is probably a better way, but this should give you the two roots/solutions.
Answer:
657 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Represent the amount of fertilizer with x and the yield with y.
So, we have:
Required:
Determine the yield (y) when fertilizer (x) is 73ft^3
Using linear interpolation, we have:
Substitute the x and y values using
and ;
We have:
Open bracket
To solve for y when x = 73.
We simply substitute 73 for x
<em>Hence, the yield for 73 cubic feet is 657 pounds</em>
