What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 12x-9y=135

Mathematics

Answer:

\frac{-9}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to isolate y.

1. Subtract 12x from both sides.

-9y=-12x+135

2. Divide by -9 in order to isolate y.

y=\frac{12}{9} x-15

3. Understand that perpendicular equations' slopes are opposite and reciprocal to the original equation. The slope of the original equation is \frac{12}{9}, so the reciprocal and opposite (flip and change the sign) slope would be \frac{-9}{12}.

URGENT!! DESPERATE!! GEOMETRY REFLECTIONS!!! PLEASE INCLUDE EXPLANATION BOGUS ANSWERS WILL BE REPORTED
serious [3.7K]

When we reflect a point across y=x, the x and y coordinates switch out , that is (x,y) becomes (y,x) . SO for point (1,2), on reflection across y=x, (1,2) becomes (2,1) . And when we do reflection across y=-x, (x,y) becomes (-y,-x). Therefore point (2,1) on reflection across y=-x becomes(-1,-2) .

So the final answer is (-1,-2) .

Can someone PLEASE help me with this question?

Answer:

  11

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value of the account is given by the formula ...

  A = P(1 +r/12)^(12t) . . . . principal P invested at rate r for t years

Solving for t, we find ...

  A/P = (1 +r/12)^(12t) . . . . . . . . . . . divide by P

  log(A/P) = 12t·log(1 +r/12) . . . . . . take logs

Divide by the coefficient of t, then fill in the numbers.

  t = log(A/P)/(12·log(1 +r/12)) = log(202800/93000)/(12·log(1 +.068/12))

  t ≈ 11.497

It will take about 11 years for the account balance to reach the desired amount.

6a+(8b+2a)=6a+(2a+8b)=0 <br><br>please help me solve this
solniwko [45]
<span>Simplifying (6a + -8b)(6a + 8b) = 0 Multiply (6a + -8b) * (6a + 8b) (6a * (6a + 8b) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 ((6a * 6a + 8b * 6a) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 Reorder the terms: ((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 ((48ab + 36a2) + -8b * (6a + 8b)) = 0 (48ab + 36a2 + (6a * -8b + 8b * -8b)) = 0 (48ab + 36a2 + (-48ab + -64b2)) = 0 Reorder the terms: (48ab + -48ab + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0 Combine like terms: 48ab + -48ab = 0 (0 + 36a2 + -64b2) = 0 (36a2 + -64b2) = 0 Solving 36a2 + -64b2 = 0 Solving for variable 'a'. Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '64b2' to each side of the equation. 36a2 + -64b2 + 64b2 = 0 + 64b2 Combine like terms: -64b2 + 64b2 = 0 36a2 + 0 = 0 + 64b2 36a2 = 0 + 64b2 Remove the zero: 36a2 = 64b2 Divide each side by '36'. a2 = 1.777777778b2 Simplifying a2 = 1.777777778b2 Take the square root of each side: a = {-1.333333333b, 1.333333333b}</span>
