Answer:

y = (1/3)x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Any line perpendicular to the given equation y = -3x + 4 will have a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -3; that is, +1/3.

Start with the general slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

Insert the coordinates 6 and -2 into y = mx + b: -2 = (1/3)(6) + b, or

-2 = 2 + b. Thus, b = -4, and the desired equation is

y = (1/3)x - 4

Answer:

The answers for your two problems, can be found below in the attached images.

Problem 1

Graph

The graph was plotted using a calculator. We can see that the graph opens up.

f(x) = x^2 + 4x +3

Vertex

The vertex is the minimum point of the equation

In this case Vertex (V) = (-2,-1)

Axis of symmetry

The x axis corresponding to the vertex component

x = -2

y intercept

Interception with the y-axis

From the first attached image, we can see that they y intercept occurs

at x = 0, y = 3

(0,3)

Problem 2

Graph.

The graph was plotted using a calculator. We can see that the graph opens up.

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

Vertex

The vertex is the minimum point of the equation

In this case Vertex (V) = (-0.75,-0.125)

Axis of symmetry

The x axis corresponding to the vertex component

x = -0.75

y intercept

Interception with the y-axis

From the second attached image, we can see that they y intercept occurs

at x = 0, y = 1

(0,1)

Answer:

uh, I think it's 4.13

Step-by-step explanation:

5*sin(65)=4.13 now this seems a bit off but this was the only one that actually worked

What is the measurement 345.067 mg rounded to four significant digits?

Viktor [21]

<span>count four from the first digit to the fourth one. When you see the fourth one, look at the digit after. if it is 5+ then the fourth digit increases by one. if 5- then it stays the same. 6>5 so 0 becomes 1.

Therefore the answer is 345.1mg</span>

Find the distance between each pair of points. Round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary. Hint: Use the Pythagorean T

Paul [167]

The distance between two points on the plane is given by the formula below

$\begin{gathered} A=(x_1,y_1),B=(x_2,y_2) \\ \Rightarrow d(A,B)=\sqrt[]{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, in our case,

$A=(-1,-3),B=(5,2)$

Thus,

$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow d(A,B)=\sqrt[]{(-1-5)^2+(-3-2)^2}=\sqrt[]{6^2+5^2}=\sqrt[]{36+25}=\sqrt[]{61} \\ \Rightarrow d(A,B)=\sqrt[]{61} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the answer is sqrt(61)

In general,

$-(-n)=n$

Remember that

$-n=(-1)\cdot n$

Therefore,

$\begin{gathered} a-(-n)=a+(-1)(-n)=a+(-1)(-1\cdot n)=a+(-1)^2\cdot n=a+1\cdot n=a+n \\ \Rightarrow a-(-n)=a+n \end{gathered}$
