Determine whether the graphs of y=6x+4 and y=1/6x are perpendicular.

Mathematics

nikklg [1K]3 years ago

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first we find the slopes and compare them

y = 6x + 4.....slope here is 6

y = 1/6x.....slope here is 1/6

perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes.

These equations are not perpendicular.

look at y = 6x + 4.....slope is 6.....a perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope...all that means is flip the slope and change the sign....so a perpendicular line will have a slope of :  6 or 6/1.....flip the slope....1/6....change the sign...-1/6....so a perpendicular line to y = 6x + 4 would have to have a slope of -1/6.

In this question, you're trying to see if the equations are perpendicular.

With the given equations, they are NOT perpendicular.

Why are they not perpendicular? This is because in order for two equations to be perpendicular from each one, one has to have a positive slope and the other has to have a negative slope, they pretty much have to be opposite from each other. One of them has to be the reciprocal.

Use any of the methods to determine whether the series converges or diverges. Give reasons for your answer.
Aleks [24]

Answer:

It means \sum_{n=1}^\inf} = \frac{7n^2-4n+3}{12+2n^6} also converges.

Step-by-step explanation:

The actual Series is::

\sum_{n=1}^\inf} = \frac{7n^2-4n+3}{12+2n^6}

The method we are going to use is comparison method:

According to comparison method, we have:

\sum_{n=1}^{inf}a_n\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \sum_{n=1}^{inf}b_n

If series one converges, the second converges and if second diverges series, one diverges

Now Simplify the given series:

Taking"n^2"common from numerator and "n^6"from denominator.

=\frac{n^2[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{n^6[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]} \\\\=\frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{n^4[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}

\sum_{n=1}^{inf}a_n=\sum_{n=1}^{inf}\frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \sum_{n=1}^{inf}b_n=\sum_{n=1}^{inf} \frac{1}{n^4}

Now:

\sum_{n=1}^{inf}a_n=\sum_{n=1}^{inf}\frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}\\ \\\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n = \lim_{n \to \infty}  \frac{[7-\frac{4}{n}+\frac{3}{n^2}]}{[\frac{12}{n^6}+2]}\\=\frac{7-\frac{4}{inf}+\frac{3}{inf}}{\frac{12}{inf}+2}\\\\=\frac{7}{2}

So a_n is finite, so it converges.

Similarly b_n converges according to p-test.

P-test:

General form:

\sum_{n=1}^{inf}\frac{1}{n^p}

if p>1 then series converges. In oue case we have:

\sum_{n=1}^{inf}b_n=\frac{1}{n^4}

p=4 >1, so b_n also converges.

According to comparison test if both series converges, the final series also converges.

It means \sum_{n=1}^\inf} = \frac{7n^2-4n+3}{12+2n^6} also converges.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer: 125/242

Step-by-step explanation: Probability is favorable outcomes over all outcome, since there were 250+234 total outcome, and 250 were favorable (girls), then the probability is 250/250+234=250/484=125/242

What are the solutions of the equation x^4-9x^2+8=0? Use u substitution to solve.
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

The answer is the second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Let u=x^2.

( {x}^{2} ) {}^{2}  - 9( {x}^{2} ) + 8( {x}^{2} ) {}^{0}

{u}^{2}  - 9u + 8

(u - 1)(u - 8)

u = 1

u = 8

Set this equal to x^2

{x}^{2}  = 1

x = 1

or

x =  - 1

{x}^{2}  = 8

x = 2 \sqrt{2}

or

x =  - 2 \sqrt{2}

Ruth works at a farmer's market and gets paid $50. she also gets paid $0.65 for each jar of jelly "j" she sells. which equation
34kurt

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ruth's salary is s(j), where s represents salary and j the number of jars she sells.

At the very beginning, she receives $50.  Only answer 'd' could be correct.

But also, the equation has the variable part 0.65j, or

$0.65j, which is directly proportional to the unit price of the jars of jelly.

*

Summing up the fixed and variable parts, we get

s = $50 + ($0.65j), or s = $50 + ($0.65/jar)j    This is Answer D.
