For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:
m1*m2=-1
So we first need to find the slope of the reference line.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(7-2)/(-1--5)=5/4
So the perpendicular line will have a slope of:
5m/4=-1
m=-4/5
So our perpendicular line so far is:
y=-4x/5+b, now we can use point (3,-1) to solve for the y-intercept, "b"
-1=-4(3)/5+b
-1=-12/5+b
-5/5+12/5=b
7/5=b
So the line is:
y=-4x/5+7/5 or more neatly
y=(-4x+7)/5
y=-0.8x+1.4
A formula helps you or tells you what to do to find the are, perimeter, volume of any shape. A = 1 x w is a formula to find an area of a 2-d figure. it is a formula becuase it tells you what to do to find the area.
<h2>
Maximum area is 25 m²</h2>
Explanation:
Let L be the length and W be the width.
Aidan has 20 ft of fence with which to build a rectangular dog run.
Fencing = 2L + 2W = 20 ft
L + W = 10
W = 10 - L
We need to find what is the largest area that can be enclosed.
Area = Length x Width
A = LW
A = L x (10-L) = 10 L - L²
For maximum area differential is zero
So we have
dA = 0
10 - 2 L = 0
L = 5 m
W = 10 - 5 = 5 m
Area = 5 x 5 = 25 m²
Maximum area is 25 m²
I suck at math to I’m so so sorry Ask a tutor they will help
Gradient:3
Y intercept:(0,2)
