What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line with equation y = 5x – 2?

Mathematics
1 answer:
LekaFEV [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

- \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = 5x - 2 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 5

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{5}

The following are the temperatures of 10 days in winter in °C.
laila [671]

Answer:

0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean temperature, we have to add all of the numbers together and divide that by the amount of numbers there are.

6 + 5 + 3 + -4 + 3 + -3 + 2 + -1 + -2 + 0 = 9

There are 10 numbers.

Our mean, or average, would be 9 / 10 = 0.9

I need help with this ​
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph given, we can expect the x axis to be horizontal and the y axis to be vertical. This means that the arm span represents y and the height represents x.

Therefore, if a girl on her team is 63 inches tall, we can say that y=x+2, and since height is x, y = 63 + 2 = 65
