Answer:
y = -1/3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular, the signs of the slope must be opposite and the slopes are reciprocals.
(basically if one is say -2/3, the other is 3/2. just flip it upside down)
So this slope is 3, so the new slope should be -1/3
The equation is now y = -1/3x + b
To find b, substitute (-9,5) in the equation
y = -1/3x + b
5 = -1/3(9) + b
5 = -3 + b
8 = b
So the equation is y = -1/3x + b
Hey There!
The depth of the Indian Ocean rounded to the nearest thousand is 13,000.
Answer:
No there cannot be.
Step-by-step explanation:
In explaining this question, I would like us to take into account who the barber is,
" the barber is the one who shaves all those, and those only, who do not shave themselves".
This barber cannot be in existence because who would shave him? If he should shave himself then there is a violation of the rule which says he shaves only those who do not shave themselves. If he shaves himself then he ceases to be a barber. And if he does not shave himself then he happens to be under those who must be shaved by the barber, because of what the rule says. But then he is the barber.
This lead us to a contradiction.
Neither is possible so there is no such barber.
Answer:
6.708
Step-by-step explanation:
- Y varies directly as the square of x (Given)
......(1)
- Y varies inversely as the square root of z (Given)
......(2)
- Combining (1) & (2), we find:
(Where k is constant of proportionality).....(3)
- Now, when y = 2, x = 3 and z = 4, we find the value of k i.e. constant.
- Plugging the value of k in (3), we find:
....(4)
- Next, in equation (4), plug y = 5, x = n and z = 16 and obtain the value of n by solving it.
