a=2

Answer:

(m1) slope of DE=(7-1)/(10-a)=6/(10-a)

(m2) slope of EF=(11-7)/(7-10)=4/-3=-4/3

since line are perpendicular

m1m2=-1

6/(10-a) ×-4/3=-1

6/(10-a)=3/4

6×4=3(10-a)

24=30-3a

3a=30-24

a=6/3=2

Answer:

y = 2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope:

12 - 2 / 1 - (-4)

10 / 5 = 2

Write in point-slope form:

y - 12 = 2(x - 1)

rearrange:

y - 12 = 2x - 2

y = 2x + 10

The table below shows some inputs and outputs of the invertible function f etc

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

$(a)\ f^{-1}(-15) = -6$

$(b)\ f^{-1}(4) + f(9)=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

$(a)\ f^{-1}(-15)$

This represents an inverse function.

So, we look into x row for its value.

i.e.

$f^{-1}(-15) = -6$

$(b)\ f^{-1}(4) + f(9)$

Just like (a)

$f^{-1}(4) = -11$ ---- by looking into the x rows

$f(9) = 11$

So:

$f^{-1}(4) + f(9)=-11 + 11$

$f^{-1}(4) + f(9)=0$

Bert is planning to open a savings account that earns 1.6% simple interest yearly. He wants to earn exactly $240 in interest aft

Drupady [299]

I = PRT
I = 240
R = 1.6% = 0.016
T = 3

now we sub and solve for P, the money he should deposit
240 = P * 0.016 * 3
240 = 0.048P
240 / 0.048 = P
5000 = P <==== ur answer is 5,000
