Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To define the perpendicular line we need to first know the slope of the reference line graphed.
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) we have points (0,5) and (2,1)
m=(1-5)/(2-0)
m=-4/2
m=-2
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must satisfy
m1m2=-1, we have a line with a slope of -2 so
-2m=-1
m=1/2, so our perpendicular line is so far
y=x/2+b, it must have point (3,2) so we can solve for b
2=3/2+b
b=1/2, so the swimmer will travel along the line
y=x/2+1/2
The origin.
0 belongs in none of these quadrants but in the origin. The origin is the center dot in the middle of all quadrants.
-0.574
Subtract the two numbers to get the solution
the current ages:
father= 32 yrs old
son=5 yrs old
-------
4(5+x) = 32+x
20+4x = 32+x
4x-x = 32–20
3x =12
x = 12/3
x = 4 years
------------------------------------
after the 4 years later the farther age will be 36 ( 32+4 = 36)
the son will be 9 ( 5+4= 9 years)
the x presents how the father will be after 4 times the age of the son
