What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,-4) and is perpendicular to the line 5x+6y=36

Mathematics

Inessa [10]3 years ago

Answer:

y = 6/5x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's fix this equation

5x + 6y = 36 (subtract 5x on both sides)

6y = -5x + 36 (divide by 6 on both sides)

y = -5/6x + 6

NOW

The perpendicular slope of this equation is 6/5

Now we have to plug in (-5,-4) to get the y-intercept

-4 = 6/5(-5) + b  (distribute 6/5 to -5)  (b represents the y-intercept)

-4 = -6 + b (add 6 on both sides)

2 = b

So your equation is...

y = 6/5x + 2

Bouncing Baby Company sells their cribs for the following amounts to stores
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Price of cribs (P) are proportional to the proportional to the number of cribs (N) sold,

P ∝ N

P = kN

Here 'k' is the proportionality constant

To get the value of proportionality constant,

Since, value of 10 cribs is $1320

1320 = k(10)

k = 132

Therefore, equation will be

P = 132N

Option A

If number of cribs = 6

P = 132(6) = $792

False.

Option B

For N = 22

P = 132(22) = $2904

False.

Option C

For N = 40

P = 132(40) = $5280

True

Option D

For N = 55

P = 132(55) = $7260

False

Option E

For N = 80

P = 132(80)

  = $10560

False

Option F

For N = 250

P = 132(250)

  = $33000

False

If the given options have been written correctly only one option, Option (C) is correct.
