What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the graph of y = –3x?

Mathematics

Morgarella [4.7K]3 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

The equation is; y= -3x

or, 3x+y = 0.......... (I)

From equation (I)

slope(m1) =  \frac{ - coeff. \: of \: x}{coeff. \: of \: y}

m1=  \frac{ - 3}{1}

Therefore, m= -3

Now, As per the condition of perpendicular lines;

M1*M2 = -1

-3*M2 = -1

M2= -1/-3

Therefore, the slope of a line which is perpendicular to the equation is; 1/3.

What best describes the area of a polygon
never [62]

Answer:

The area of any regular polygon is given by the formula: Area = (a x p)/2, where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter of the polygon. Plug the values of a and p in the formula and get the area. As an example, let's use a hexagon (6 sides) with a side (s) length of 10.

The area of a polygon is the two-dimensional set of all points surrounded by the sides of the polygon.

If you're looking for an equation, it varies based on the number of sides and the shape of the polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Apothem

A regular polygon is equilateral (it has equal sides) and equiangular (it has equal angles). To find the area of a regular polygon, you use an apothem — a segment that joins the polygon’s center to the midpoint of any side and that is perpendicular to that side (segment HM in the following figure is an apothem).

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

the first option

Step-by-step explanation:

solution:

distance: d=1/4 lc (because is a quarter of a circle)

length of the circumference: lc=2 pi r

pi: constant=3.14

radius of the circle: r=80 feet

replacing pi and r in the formula of lc:

lc=2 pi r

lc=2 (3.14) (80 feet)

lc=502.4 feet

replacing lc in the formula of d:

d=1/4 lc

d=1/4 (502.4 feet)

d=502.4/4 feet

d=125.6 feet
