The equation of the line WX is 2X plus Y equals -5 what is the equation of a line perpendicular to line WX in slope intercept fo

tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

$y = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line WX is, 2x + y = - 5

⇒ y = - 2x - 5 .......... (1)

This equation is in slope-intercept form and the slope is - 2 and the y-intercept is - 5.

Now, if a line perpendicular to equation (1) having slope m then, m × (- 2) = - 1

⇒ $m = \frac{1}{2}$

{Since the product of slopes of two mutually perpendicular straight line is - 1}

Therefore, the equation of the perpendicular line is

$y = \frac{1}{2}x + c$ , where c is a constant and we have to find it.

This above line passes through the point (-1,-2) and hence

$- 2 = \frac{1}{2}(- 1) + c$

⇒ $c = - \frac{3}{2}$

Therefore, the equation of the line will be $y = \frac{1}{2}x - \frac{3}{2}$ (Answer)

Convert 0.6 shuttle orbits per hour to orbits per year

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

5256 orbits

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 8760 hours in a year, and at a rate of 0.6 orbits per hour you can find how many orbits there are per year by multiplying the rate and time like this

8760 x 0.6

This gives us an answer of 5256 which is the number of orbits per year

A circle has a diameter of 21 meters. What is the circumference of the circle? Use 22/7 for ∏.

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

66

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of the circle is 21. The formula for circumference is pie*radius*2. We don't have the radius but the diameter is just double the radius so just don't multiply by 2. 21 x 22 = 462. 46s divided by 7 is 66. Enjoy your answer :D

the graph shows the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey at the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k me

Simora [160]

Answer:

a) 27 m/s

b) 30 m/s

c) i) 3

ii) Deceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, the correct question is given as:

The graph shows information about the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey. At the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k metres per second. The distance travelled during the 50 seconds is 1.35 kilometres.

(a) Work out the average speed of the vehicle during the 50 seconds

(b) Work out the value of k.

(c) (i) Calculate the gradient of the graph in the final 10 seconds of the journey

(ii) Describe what this gradient represents

Answer:

The graph is attached. The total time = 50 seconds, total distance = 1.35 km = 1350 m

a) The average speed is the ratio of the total distance traveled to the total time taken to cover this distance. The average speed is given by the formula:

$Average \ speed=\frac{total\ distance}{total\ time}\\ Substituting: \\ Average \ speed=\frac{1350\ m}{50\ s} = 27\ m/s$

b) From the graph, the total distance covered is the area of the graph. The graph is made up of a rectangle and triangle, the area of the graph is equal to the sum of area of rectangle and area of triangle.

$Total \ distance=Total\ area=Area\ of \ rectangle+Area\ of \ triangle\\Total \ distance=(length *breadth)+\frac{1}{2}base*height\\1350 \ m=(40*k)+0.5*10*k\\1350=40k+5k\\45k=1350\\k=1350/45\\k=30\ m/s$ c) i) The gradient in the last 10 seconds is the ratio of change in speed to change in time

$Gradient=\frac{change\ in\ speed }{change\ in\ time}=\frac{0-k}{50-40} \\ bt \ k=30\\Gradient=\frac{0-30}{50-40}= \frac{-30}{10} =-3$

ii) Since the gradient is negative it means it is deceleration. That is in the in the last 10 seconds the vehicle decelerates at a rate of 3 m/s²
