We have a line y = 1/3x -6
We want a line that is perpendicular to this line
Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1
1/3 * m = -1
3 * 1/3 *m = -1 * 3
m = -3
The slope of the perpendicular line is -3
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = -3x+b
We have a point on the line ( 7 ,-23)
Substitute this point into the equation
-23 = -3(7)+b
-23 = -21+b
Add 21 to each side
-23+21 = -21+21+b
-2 = b
y = -3x-2
In slope intercept form, the line perpendicular passing through (7,-23) is
y = -3x-2
Answer:
y = 17(2)^x
Step-by-step explanation:
If the graph of y = ab^x goes through (0, 17), then
17 = ab*0, or a = 17
Then the function is y = ab^x with a = 17, or
y = 17*b^x and we must find b.
If the graph of y = 17*b^x also goes through (6, 1088), then the following must be true: 1088 = 17*b^6
which reduces to 64 = b^6
Taking the sixth root of both sides, we get 64^(1/6) = b, and so b = 2
Then the desired exponential function is
y = 17(2)^x
The correct answer is 104 games.
You get that number by dividing 160 with a 100, to find out how large 1% is, and then you multiply it with 65 to find out how much 65% is, and the answer is 104 games.
15 miles cause you do 5 times 3 and you get 15 miles
5x = 2x + 9, where 5x > 0 and 2x + 9 > 0 ;
Then, 3x = 9 ;
Then, x = 3 ;
Verify : 5 × 3 = 2 × 3 + 9 ;correct !
5 × 3 > 0 ; correct !
2 × 3 + 9 > 0; correct !
