Perpendicular lines have a negative reciprocal to the original slope, so for example, the negative reciprocal of 1/3 is -3 and the negative reciprocal of -2 is 1/2. The negative reciprocal of -6 is 1/6, which is your answer. I hope this helps!
Answer:
5 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the tree grows 4 feet every single year and the second year it was 12 feet tall then that means that when you bought the tree it was 8 feet tall (12-4 = 8). Therefore, using these values we can write an equation to calculate the number of years it will take for the height of the tree to be 28 feet. We do this by multiplying 4ft by the variable of a number of years (x) and then adding that product to 8ft which is the initial height. All of which should add up to 28 ft.
28 ft. = 8 ft. + 4x ... subtract both sides by 8
20 ft. = 4x ... divide both sides by 4
5 years = x
Therefore, it will take 5 years from the initial purchase for the tree to be 28ft tall.
Answer:
The sine function can only have values from -1 to +1
Step-by-step explanation:
Y= 80.55% approximately, 80.6% rounded up
Calculations:
The percent (percentage) of a given number p/q can be found, for the most part, without a calculator by a slight change in the notation:
y=the number 29/36 expressed as a percent becomes
y=[29(2.7777777778 approx.)]/[36(2.7777777778 approx.)]
y=0.8055 approx. (Express the decimal numeral as a percent)
y=0.8055(100)
y=
80.55% approx., which is 80.6% rounded up to the nearest tenth percent
