What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line who’s equation is x-y=5 fully reduce your answer

Mathematics

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope intercept formula(y=mx+b) to find the slope of a line.

First, you will want to put everything into it's proper order, so you will get -y=-x+5.

You cannot have a negative y, so divide everything by -1 and you will get y=x-5.

1 is the slope. Now that you know that, you will want to find the reciprocal. To find the reciprocal, you will need to swap the numerator and the denominator and then swap it's sign, whether that is positive or negative..

The reciprocal of 1 is -1. -1 is the slope of the perpendicular line

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The constraint which represent a thriving population of penguins at the zoo is:

            0 < x ≤ 10   and   0 < y ≤ 20.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let x = the number of female penguins and y = the number of male penguins.

Now, it is given that:

The group needs two times more males than females to thrive, and the zoo only has room for 10 female penguins.

This means that:

   0 < x ≤ 10

( Because there are no room for more than 10 penguins )

Also,

   y= 2x

Since,

   x>0

This means that: 2x>0

i.e. y>0

and x ≤ 10

i.e. 2x ≤ 20

i.e.  y ≤ 20

Hence, the constraints which represent a thriving population of penguins at the zoo is:

                 0 < x ≤ 10 and 0 < y ≤ 20.

sarah lost her science book her school charges a lost book fee equal to 75% of the cost of the book sarah recieved a notice she
laila [671]

Answer: $80

Step-by-step explanation:

You have been told that Sarah ended up paying $60, and you were told before that the charge for a lost book was 75%.

Therefore

$60 = 75%

Now we have to find out what amount of money would be equivalent to 100%:

To do this, find out what amount of money would be equivalent to 25% first.

You can do this by dividing both values by 3.

60 / 3 = 20

75 / 3 = 25

So now $20 = 25%

Now find 100% (which is the original amount) multiply each value by 4 :

$80 = 100%

So the school payed $80 for the book.

hope this helps :)

There are 2.54 cm in 1 inch. they are 100 cm in 1 m, to the nearest meter, how many meters are in 474 inches
zlopas [31]

Multiply total meters by 100 to get total centimeters:

6 meters x 100 = 600 centimeters.

Now divide total centimeters by 2.554 to get total inches:

600 centimeters / 2.54 = 236.22 inches.

Rounded to the nearest inch = 236 inches.
