Are the lines y = –x – 4 and 5x -5y = 20 perpendicular? Explain.

Mathematics

Zarrin [17]3 years ago

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

If 2 lines are perpendicular then the product of their slopes = - 1

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

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

y = - x - 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 1

5x - 5y = 20 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

- 5y = - 5x + 20 ( divide all terms by - 5 )

y = x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 1

Thus product of their slopes is - 1 × 1 = - 1

Therefore the lines are perpendicular

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Talking 65 minutes, $ 6.50 must be paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since your cell phone plan is by the minute, and each minute of use cost $ 0.10, to create a relation that represents the amount spent, A, per minute, m, of call time, and then use the relation to find the amount spent if you talk 65 minutes, the following calculations must be performed:

0.10 x M = A

0.10 x 65 = A

6.50 = A

Thus, talking 65 minutes, $ 6.50 must be paid.

Please help me with this please and thank you
Alina [70]

Step-by-step explanation:

y = ax^n + bx^(n-1) ... + z

(0, 1) tells us that the constant term z = 1.

because x = 0 eliminates all other terms. and as the sum is 1, that means z = 1.

for the other pairs I strongly suspect

(-1, 3) : 2×(-1)² + 1 = 2×1 + 1 = 3

(-2, 9) : 2×(-2)² + 1 = 2×4 + 1 = 9

so, the fitting equation is

y = 2x² + 1

loris [4]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  250 days

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of drops increases by a factor of 20/8, the expected life will decrease by the inverse of that factor: 8/20.

The expected life is (8/20)(625 days) = 250 days.
