Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To define the perpendicular line we need to first know the slope of the reference line graphed.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) we have points (0,5) and (2,1)
m=(1-5)/(2-0)
m=-4/2
m=-2
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must satisfy
m1m2=-1, we have a line with a slope of -2 so
-2m=-1
m=1/2, so our perpendicular line is so far
y=x/2+b, it must have point (3,2) so we can solve for b
2=3/2+b
b=1/2, so the swimmer will travel along the line
y=x/2+1/2
Here’s a picture of my work. The answer is seven. Hope this helps :-)
Answer:
a = 33 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that 57 degrees and Angle a are complementary: they add up to 90 degrees.
Thus, a = 90 degrees less 57 degrees = 33 degrees
If all the cheese slices have same mass, say m grams
and mass of 3 cheese slices is 27
so,
m+m+m=27
3m=27
or m=27/3
m=9
thus
mass of one cheese slice is 9 grams
