Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the equation y=-x+4 and passes through the point (2,5)

Mathematics

Answer:

y=x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative and reciprocal. If you multiply them together, the result is -1.

here is the equation: y=-x+4

the slope is -1

here is the equation to find the slope of the perpendicular line:

-1m=-1

multiply by -1

m=1

here is the new line so far: y=1x+b

now, we can substitute the point (2,5) into the equation, since the equation will pass through that point to find b (the y intercept)

5=1(2)+b

5=2+b

3=b

the equation of the line is y=1x+3, or y=x+3

Hope this helps!

What is the answer to this

4 \dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{5}{12} =

= \dfrac{23}{5} \times \dfrac{5}{12}

You changed the mixed numeral into a fraction correctly.
Now you need to multiply the fractions.
Multiply the numerators together, and multiply the denominators together.

= \dfrac{23 \times 5}{5 \times 12}

Now we could multiply out the numerator and denominator, and then we'd need to reduce the fraction, but before we multiply, we see there is a factor of 5 both in the numerator and in the denominator, so we can reduce before we multiply.

= \dfrac{23 \times 5}{12 \times 5}

= \dfrac{23}{12}

= 1 \dfrac{11}{12}

Given g(x) = -x + 5, solve for x when g(x) = 3.
Elan Coil [88]
Both equal g(x) so put them together

-x+5=3 then solve for x

-x=3-5
-x=-2
-2 divided by -x =2

x=2

Express the function f(x) =3x^2-6x-18 in the form a(x + h)^2=k, where a, h and k are constants.Hence state the :
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) =3x^2-6x-18

Factor out the greatest common factor out of the first two terms

f(x) =3(x^2-2x)-18

Complete the square

-2x/2 =-1  (-1)^2 = 1

Add 1  (But remember the 3 out front so we are really adding 3  so we need to subtract 3 to remain balanced)

f(x) = 3(x^2 -2x+1) -3 -18

f(x) = 3(x-1)^2 -21

This is vertex form

f(x) = a(x-h)^2 +k  where (h,k) is the vertex and a is a constant

The vertex is (1,-21)  

Since a > 0 this opens upward and the vertex is a minimum

The minimum value of f(x) is -21 and it occurs at x = 1
