Find a linear equation that is perpendicular to y= 2x + 4 and passes through (-5, -3)

1 answer:

Trava [24]3 years ago

8 0

Answer:

y=-1/2x+7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

two lines are perpendicular if the product of the slopes is equal to -1

the slope for y=2x+4 is 2

2*x=-1

x=-1/2

the formula for the slope is

(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=m

we know y1 and x1

(y+5)/(x+3)=-1/2

y+5=x+3/2

2y+10=x+3

2y=x-7

y=-1/2x+7/2

Jonah drives from his car to and from work. The total length of the trip to and from work is 19.2 miles. In August, Jonah worked

natita [175]

ANSWER

The total length of the trip to and from work in August is

$403.2 \: miles$

EXPLANATION

The total length of the trip to and from work is

$19.2 \: miles$

If Jonah worked 21 days in August,

Then, the total length of the trip to and from work is
$= 21 \times 19.2 \: miles$

Change the decimal to fraction and multiply,

$= 21 \times \frac{192}{10} miles$

$= \frac{21 \times 192}{10}$

$= \frac{4032}{10} miles$

Convert back to decimal

$= 403.2 \: miles$

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

This means that the population of the colony after t months is given by:

$P(t) = P(0)(3)^t$

In which P(0) is the initial population.

The population started with 5 rabbits.

This means that $P(0) = 5$

So

$P(t) = 5(3)^t$

How many rabbits are there after 6 months?

This is P(6). So

$P(6) = 5(3)^6 = 3645$

3645 rabbits after 6 months.
