Step-by-step explanation:
a general line equation is
y = ax + b
the original line is
y = 3/5 x + 10
the factor of x is always the slope (inclination of the line).
it is "y change/x change".
the slope of a perpendicular line (angle of 90°) is turning the slope of the original line upside-down and flips the sign.
so, it is -5/3.
we use the point information to get the right "b" for our new line :
-5 = -5/3 × 15 + b
-5 = -5×5 + b
-5 = -25 + b
b = 20
so, the perpendicular line equation going through (15, -5) is
y = -5/3 x + 20
Answer:
8.0
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached shows guesses until we have an answer accurate to 6 decimal places. Rounded to 1 decimal place, the answer is 8.0 years.
This (8 years) was our initial guess, based on the "rule of 72" which says the doubling time for 9% interest is 72/9 = 8 years.
Our second guess, at 8.1, was farther away from the doubled value, so the first guess at 8.0 is closer.
t = 8.0
Hello :
2x²+3x+1=0
a=2 b=3 c=1
b²-4ac = (3)²-4(2)(1) = 1
Answer:
The triangle is isosceles and not right
Hope this helps.
