8) through: (-3, -2), perp. to y = x – 1 A) y=-5x – 1 B) y=-4x – 5 C) y=-x – 5 D) y=-5x – 4

Answer:

The equation through (-3, -2) and perpendicular to y = x – 1 is y = -x -5 and option c is correct.

Solution:

Given, line equation is y = x – 1 ⇒ x – y – 1 = 0. And a point is (-3, -2)

We have to find the line equation which is perpendicular to above given line and passing through the given point.

Now, let us find the slope of the given line equation.

$\text { Slope }=\frac{-x \text { coefficient }}{y \text { coefficient }}=\frac{-1}{-1}=1$

We know that, product of slopes of perpendicular lines is -1.

So, 1 $\times$ slope of perpendicular line = -1

slope of perpendicular line = -1

Now let us write point slope form for our required line.

$\mathrm{y}-\mathrm{y}_{1}=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{x}-\mathrm{x}_{1}\right)$

y – (-2) = -1(x – (-3))

y + 2 = -1(x + 3)

y + 2 = -x – 3

x + y + 2 + 3 = 0

x + y + 5 = 0

y = -x -5

Hence the equation through (-3, -2) and perpendicular to y = x – 1 is y = -x -5 and option c is correct.

Mrs. Carter baked 100 muffins for a bake sale. The muffins were sold in packages of 2. There were 12 muffins left. Write an equa

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

2n + 12 = 100 (Equation)
2n = 88 (Solving)
n = 44 people bought muffins at the bake sale. (Solving)

Step-by-step explanation:

100 muffins, and 2 in each package. Therefore, there are 50 packages. However, in the end, there are 12 left, so there must have been 6 packages left.

Answer:

$\text{Length of AB is }\frac{ah}{a+h}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given △KMN, ABCD is a square where KN=a, MP⊥KN, MP=h.

we have to find the length of AB.

Let the side of square i.e AB is x units.

As ADCB is a square ⇒ ∠CDN=90°⇒∠CDP=90°

⇒ CP||MP||AB

In ΔMNP and ΔCND

∠NCD=∠NMP (∵ corresponding angles)

∠NDC=∠NPM (∵ corresponding angles)

By AA similarity rule, ΔMNP~ΔCND

Also, ΔKAP~ΔKPM by similarity rule as above.

Hence, corresponding sides are in proportion

$\frac{ND}{NP}=\frac{CD}{MP} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KA}{KP}=\frac{AB}{PM} \\\\\frac{ND}{NP}=\frac{x}{h} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KA}{KP}=\frac{x}{h}\\\\\frac{NP}{ND}=\frac{h}{x} \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{KP}{KA}=\frac{h}{x}\\\\\frac{PD}{ND}=\frac{h}{x}-1 \thinspace\thinspace and\thinspace\thinspace \frac{AP}{KA}=\frac{h}{x}-1\\$
