Y = -10x + 1...slope here is -10. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal of a number, flip the number and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will need a slope of 1/10.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/10
(5,7)....x = 5 and y = 7
now sub and find b, the y int
7 = 1/10(5) + b
7 = 1/2 + b
7 - 1/2 = b
14/2 - 1/2 = b
13/2 = b

so ur perpendicular line going thru (5,7) is y = 1/10x + 13/2

Could someone give me an answer and explain how you got it ?

Answer:

A (9, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

First the point is rotated 90° counterclockwise about the origin. To do that transformation: (x, y) → (-y, x).

So S(-3, -5) becomes S'(5, -3).

Next, the point is translated +4 units in the x direction and +6 units in the y direction.

So S'(5, -3) becomes S"(9, 3).

At the start of the year, 15 chameleons were introduced into a zoo. The population of chameleons is expected to grow at a rate o

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

option-B

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

At the start of the year, 15 chameleons were introduced into a zoo

so, $P_0=15$

The population of chameleons is expected to grow at a rate of 41.42% every year

so, r=0.4142

and x represents the number of years since the chameleons were introduced into the zoo

now, we can set equation to find total population

and we get

$P(x)=P_0(1+r)^x$

now, we can plug values

$P(x)=15(1+0.4142)^x$

$P(x)=15(1.4142)^x$

Average rate of change between 2 years and 4 years:

we can use formula

$A_1=\frac{P(4)-P(2)}{4-2}$

now, we can plug values

$A_1=\frac{15(1.4142)^{4}-15(1.4142)^{2}}{4-2}$

$A_1=14.99914$

Average rate of change between 4 years and 6 years:

we can use formula

$A_2=\frac{P(6)-P(4)}{6-4}$

now, we can plug values

$A_2=\frac{15(1.4142)^{6}-15(1.4142)^{4}}{6-4}$

$A_2=29.99770$

Average rate of change between 6 years and 8 years:

we can use formula

$A_3=\frac{P(8)-P(6)}{8-6}$

now, we can plug values

$A_3=\frac{15(1.4142)^{8}-15(1.4142)^{6}}{8-6}$

$A_3=59.99425$

now, we will check each options

option-A:

we can see that

$A_3-A_2=30$

$A_3-A_2=30$

So, this is FALSE

option-B:

$A_1=\frac{1}{2}A_2$

So, this is TRUE

option-C:

This is FALSE

option-D:

we got

$A_1=\frac{1}{2}A_2$

so, this is FALSE
