Answer:

- $\frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, 1) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{1-(-4)}{1-0}$ = $\frac{1+4}{1}$ = 5

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

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

9966 [12]

Answer:

$(a)\ Area = 3765.32$

$(b)\ Area = 4773$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$A_1 = 169in^2$ --- area of each square

$Shade = 4in$

See attachment for window

Solving (a): Area of the window

First, we calculate the dimension of each square

Let the length be L;

So:

$L^2 = A_1$

$L^2 = 169$

$L = \sqrt{169$

$L=13$

The length of two squares make up the radius of the semicircle.

So:

$r = 2 * L$

$r = 2*13$

$r = 26$

The window is made up of a larger square and a semi-circle

Next, calculate the area of the larger square.

16 small squares made up the larger square.

So, the area is:

$A_2 = 16 * 169$

$A_2 = 2704$

The area of the semicircle is:

$A_3 = \frac{\pi r^2}{2}$

$A_3 = \frac{3.14 * 26^2}{2}$

$A_3 = 1061.32$

So, the area of the window is:

$Area = A_2 + A_3$

$Area = 2704 + 1061.32$

$Area = 3765.32$

Solving (b): Area of the shade

The shade extends 4 inches beyond the window.

This means that;

The bottom length is now; Initial length + 8

And the height is: Initial height + 4

In (a), the length of each square is calculated as: 13in

4 squares make up the length and the height.

So, the new dimension is:

$Length = 4 * 13 + 8$

$Length = 60$

$Height = 4*13 + 4$

$Height = 56$

The area is:

$A_1 = 60 * 56 = 3360$

The radius of the semicircle becomes initial radius + 4

$r = 26 + 4 = 30$

The area is:

$A_2 = \frac{3.14 * 30^2}{2} = 1413$

The area of the shade is:

$Area = A_1 + A_2$

$Area = 3360 + 1413$

$Area = 4773$

Line l passes through point (3,−26) and line p is the graph of y−3=−5(x−2) .

uranmaximum [27]

Considering the definition of parallel line, the equation of line l is y= -5x -11.

<h3>Linear equation</h3>

A linear equation o line can be expressed in the form y = mx + b

where

x and y are coordinates of a point.
m is the slope.
b is the ordinate to the origin and represents the coordinate of the point where the line crosses the y axis.

<h3>Parallel line</h3>

Parallel lines are two lines that are always at the same distance from each other.

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope and different y-intercepts. This is, they have the same value of m and different value of b.

<h3>Equation of parallel line in this case</h3>

In this case, the line is y−3=−5(x−2) Expressed in the form y = mx + b, you get:

y−3=−5x−2×(-5)

y−3=−5x+ 10

y=−5x+ 10 + 3

<u><em>y= -5x +13</em></u>

where:

the slope is -5.
the y-intercept is 13.

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope. So, the parallel line has a slope of -5 and has a form of: y= -5x + b

The line passes through the point (3, -26). Replacing in the expression for parallel line:

-26= -5× 3 + b

-26= -15 + b

-26 + 15 = b

<u><em>-11 = b</em></u>

Finally, the equation of parallel line is y= -5x -11.
