Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign.
slope = -2, or -2/1....so flip the slope...-1/2...and change the sign...1/2.
so the perpendicular slope would be 1/2.
Answer:
The correct answer is 2030.
Step-by-step explanation:
To start we must analyze the information we have.
We know that a city has 8000 inhabitants and that each year this number increases by 0.5%. That means that <u>each year it has 40 more inhabitants</u>:
(8000 . 0,5) : 100 = 40
Having this information we could do a cross multiplication:
1 year ------- 40 inhabitants
x years ------- 81200
81200 = 40.x
x = 81200 : 40
x = 2030
In this way we can verify that the correct answer is 2030.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the law of variation,
y <> 1/x, where <> is the constant of proportionality. Therefore
y = k/x where k is a constant
3 = k/5 and k = 15
To find x when y = 2.5(5/2)
Go back to the second equation
y = k/x
5/2 = 15/x
When you cross multiply
5x = 30.
Divide through by 5,
x = 6.
9/10 = x/13. Solve for x. X = 11.7.
Your answer would be 11.7oz. Hope this helps
